How do I currently get to the center of the galaxy?

[test]

Apparently I'm about 700k LYs away from the center of the galaxy which I'm apparently supposed to go to, and that means I'll never get there unless there's a way to jump more than a couple hundred LYs at a time, or some other way.

My freighter could jump about 1000LYs but the map doesn't allow that because the path towards the core doesn't go that far, so trying to jump is futile. Even if I could jump 1000LYs at a time, it would still be about 700 jumps, and that's ridiculous.

So at this point, there is no point in playing any further. What have the developers been thinking??

well im just assuming here but you havent played more than a few hours and that you havent looked up this info on the internet (psssssst...theres tons of it) and basicly just looking for an easy way out or complain. there are 3 ways i know of.............

I've got that user blocked & have no idea who it is or why I blocked them. So they've been around here at the very least a few months & probably was whining about something else back then.

I have a feeling this is just trolling for engagement to make themselves feel important.

If you had looked up this information you would have found only rather old information that may still be true or not. Two of the ways you'll find are infeasible, and the third one is some gibberish about using symbols with portals many times. That doesn't work either because I don't have a special symbol, and particular symbols can not be used with portals since you must charge all the symbols a portal has or the portal doesn't work at all. So there is no way to tell where a portal might take you.

Obviously, since you have nothing to contribute but condescending crap, you're the troll.

Sounds your ship and freighter have very poor hyperdrive range... maybe you should invest in some upgrades...
My ship has ~2k ly range, and my freighter is ~5k

Also, black holes bring you a closer to the core with each jump.

And if you really want to cheese your way to the core, then get the first portal glyph (1/16) by visiting an unknown grave, and enter it repeatedly at a portal. The result will always bring you ~5k ly from the core in any galaxy

[taniwhat]

You need ONE and ONE only symbol. Which you can get by talking to a traveller at a station and going to it's grave. Then go to a portal and use that one symbol twelve times. (12 0's).

You'll be within a few jumps of galactic centre at that point.

Your failure to read the instructions is not our problem.

[Shadow Strider]

Its also worth noting that although the highlighted path only goes a relatively short distance, if you use free look then you can reach the full limit of your jump distance... (the selected system will say "out of range" if you go too far away)

you have the Artimis quest line that does it
you have the Atlas path that does it
you have the glyphs
you can travel to it with out doing anything.

so this just proves my point about you not doing any research about this before complaining about something that is hard coded into the game. you dont want to do anything yourself and expect others to do it for you. those outdated videos are still reliable for the most part is why they havent been new ones---THEY STILL WORK!!!

so now that i made you look foolish will you be quite?

[test]

Lol, if you think you made me appear foolish then you're the fool.

Artemis is dead. I'm not following the Atlas path. There are no glyphs in my inventory. It said a couple times I got some glyph without any explanation and no information about how to use them, and they don't show up anywhere. Perhaps I already used them, and perhaps they can be used only once or not at all or they can be used many times --- in any case, I didn't do anything particular to use them, and I don't know how to use them. Maybe there is information about them in the game; if there is, I haven't found it. If you go through a portal, it spews you out at some random place, and there is no reason to assume that a portal would take you somewhere in particular other than the idea that it could take you to a particular planet if you have its coordinates, which I don't have. If I had coordinates, I wouldn't know how to use them anyway.

That leaves as only option warping all the way. Since the galaxy map is badly done, the maximum distance per warp is only about 500LYs at best, and it would take over 1400 warps to get to the center. If you wanna do that go ahead, I sure don't.

I'll take a look at some videos; when they're not outdated they might be helpful.

Use black holes. Constantly. It's what they're there for if you aren't going to use a Portal.

To the user named "test":

1: You appear to have not played enough to learn the desired mechanics... which would be taught to you if you followed the questlines that you appear to be refusing to interact with.

In other words, you're refusing to play the game, then complaining that the game refuses to play with you. That's counterproductive, at best.

2: You're refusing the helpful info that has been offered by other players, and whining that they're not helpful. That's asinine.

3: You're assuming without evidence that the game or its mechanics have changed substantially in the (checks notes) nine years since it was released, which is the only way "old" videos would be rendered obsolete. This is false, and you're being deliberately obtuse.

4: Looking at your post history, you've been trolling the forums of multiple objectively good games (and a few that aren't so good; merely popular) since July of 2022; it would appear you attack other players for kicks, with a sprinkling of attacking devs and demanding refunds.

With all of that in mind, I recommend you immediately cease playing all games, get as many refunds as you can, and find another hobby; gaming doesn't seem to be fun for you, and the sociopathy you're displaying suggests that you probably shouldn't interact with humans in general.

To everyone else: stop feeding the troll.

My freighter can warp 1000LYs but the path to the core is only shown for about 500LYs at best. So even if it could jump farther that wouldn't be helpful since trying to pick a system from the map to jump to which is closer to the core doesn't really work. Other than the path, there is not even any indication into which direction to move.

I've come across such a grave. However, I've had no reason to assume that using a portal after that would be any different than before. All I could do is drop resources into all of the symbols and after that, the portal became active. So why would I ever assume that portals would take me closer to the core? I can try and see what happens ...

There were no instructions about this in the game.

Yes, but it's trail and error to find a system that's closer to the core, and systems are rather difficult to select in free view to begin with. Why doesn't the path just show the farthest reachable system that's closer to the destination?

I 1000% remember now why I blocked them.
