Hidden Jump Point
« on: October 14, 2012, 10:33:53 AM »
In my current game, a Construction Ship from a new alien race popped out a dead end system that I had previously fully surveyed and started building a jump gate on the jump point to that dead end system in Sol. This tells me there is a hidden jump point in that system because there is no way for the ship to have gotten there otherwise.

Is there a way to find the jump point that the gate builder came through, and presumably the Jump Gate it built there? I have already sent my grav survey fleet back into the dead end system and manually resurveyed all 30 survey locations. This did not turn up a jump gate or anything else.

Am I effectively in a position where an alien race to Sol orbit and I can't find where they are coming from?

In other words, you need to reset the system JP survey, only then will your survey-ships find it. Alternatively, observe the gate constructor ship leaving through the gate once it is finished.
