galaxy map route plotting issue solved
I am such a idiot! I tried to plot a route to systems too far and then it fails cos I had a very ♥♥♥♥♥♥ FSD on. So, if I can just give a little advise to newbies..get a good FSD straight away to avoid any stress haha.

LOL failed to plot route is not a broken planner but a broken user. It means it cannot plot a route to the selected destination given your current ship jump range and route settings. Failed to plot means 'can't get there from here'.

The map route plotting is not broken. I can plot 10k routes with jet cone boost enabled and KGBFOAM and non sequence stars enabled and it will throw in neutron stars along the route and also add fuel stars into the mix. The route plotter is probably one of the best I've ever seen after all the changes they made to it. It use to suck hard and couldn't figure out neutron stars, boost, etc and had a max range of 1000 light years.

Hi guys! thanks for advise and tips? I will have a look at what you mentioned here. I might have messed it up myself, but it is definitely a first time it happened. For those that think I am stupid, I have tried all other solutions, I know how ED works after almost 1200hrs lol.
I hope to get it fixed soon. I believe the support team will get back to me as well. fly save cmdrs o7

It took me a while to work out where I was going wrong as well. It's frustrating when it happens!
