Do you, by any chance, have a stars filter enabled and enforced in your route planner?

Nope I have no filters active at all

What is your jump range? Try to plot a smaller distance in that direction, to see at what point it begins to fail.

12LY but I tried going to another system 7LY away and it still failed...

Screenshots might help.

Are you looking at your max range or your current range? Do you have any cargo?

Have you added any cargo or switched to a larger module since you originally plotted the route? If so, increasing your mass requires replotting your route. It's possible that you're now carrying too much to jump.

That's weird. Can you pick up a star system from your navigation window (left window, first tab), and plot there? That one should definitely be reachable.

I have some on ym profile.

Yes but the one that I want to get to is 07LY and the panel shows ones up to 11LY. this game is on weed

Maybe one is permit locked on the way, and your jump range is too small to route around it?.. 12Ly is on a smallish side, there might be jumps that don't have 2 stars that close to each other.

Are you daft? I'm talking about the in-game panels and your galaxy map view. Might be it's not the game that's on weed...

You never specified what screenshots you wanted :D

A screenshot of the Functions tab from the ship interface panel on the right side would clarify things greatly. If for some reason your current jump range actually is legitimately down to less than 7LY then plotting a route between Kamuy and Wolf 397 would be impossible.

From what I understood of your recent posts in other threads you acquired a Python not too long ago, so if you have a 4A Frame Shift Drive installed in it and your other modules have added enough mass then you would potentially have a jump range that is simply inadequate for the journey. Bear in mind that the Python supports up to a 5A FSD, which would provide significantly better range. If it's a different ship we're talking about or the "4A" in your original post was in error, then please disregard this second block of text.
