Ran out of Navigator Insight. What to do ?

[BadrockZ]

I ran out of Navigator Insight because i made a few bad Routes that i did not want 2 and my last normal Save is Hours back. Any way i can gain Insight ? I already explored all the Systems avaible to me.

Run unsafe warp routes back and forth and hope for random event skill checks that give insight if passed.

[BadrockZ]

is there any skillchecks that give it for sure? because ive been doing that and so far got none :(

I'm currently in the same situation; I've just spent half an hour bouncing around the unsafe routes and haven't gotten any more insights.

would be nice if they added a time skip function in the game, sit still in 1 sector .. - while the navigator , was channeling / meditation her power " getting points" ..

or some .. just an example .. - as i did run out of points as well .. though most routs was at unsafe .. and that made sense, its the warp after all --but yeah .. time skip .. not just for points , but also for other events to un fold ..

You see a shadow of an asteroid in the warp, you can either steer closer to investigate (lore: warp check I think it was) or carry on your way. If you investigate and pass the check (which is reasonably difficult, I think it was 75% success chance with my 80 skill) you get 6 navigator insight points.

What does it matter? Just warp anyways

I had a similar problem. Couldn't open a route to a quest system without Navigator's Insight. It took me about two(!!!) hours in which I flew yellow and orange routes to get enough together... Clear case of game design fail...

Some star systems or small clusters of star systems have no warp route linking them to others so you have to buy a route to them.

Clear case of players just doing things without thought and then blaming the devs. Whats next? Complaing that if you make bad decisions during fights your team gets hurt?

thanks everyone managed to get one of the events after reloading about 20 times ^^

i've barely used any points, i ended up with a bunch and so turned all of the paths between my colonies into safe ones, other than that, mostly stuck to unsafe routes and ignore harder ones, don't even really use points on them.

edit: also i've not made any paths between systems that don't already have them as of yet.

Dont waste them on making routes green yellow is fine and the main reason you're not getting any is probably because you're going back and forth on green safe routes, move around on yellow or orange and you will get plenty of events...

Why is it a design fail? Navigator insight is a resource. If you just spent resources on other stuff, and now dont have enough to do something that seems important, then that`s on you, not the system.
Imagine it being money in another RPG and you bought everything on your way and now dont have enough to progress with a quest. Would you say it a design flaw that you dont get enough money to do whatever, too?

This happened to me at the end of act 2, I just bounced around a bunch and did side quests and took care of the planets. Eventually the locked off system got a red warp rout to head to it

there is a quest with the House orsellio that gives you 15 insight if you go into a trial and you are the one who is the judge(not Cassia), after you form an alliance with them ,usually i only make safe routes between my colonies and the rest i leave yellow so i have 20 + insight
