Edit: Never mind, I just figured out how to just seconds after this post. Ironic. But is it normal for all the jump points to say 'Unex'? Does this mean ALL of them go to that one system?
Also, I vaguely remember needing some other kind of sensor aside from grav survey sensors in order to detect ships and home worlds and whatnot. What would you recommend, for a ship to explore beyond the solar system and investigate?
'Unex' is short for Unexplored. So you have no idea where the jump points go. Geographic survey sensors are required to do surveys of planets. To detect other ships, you can use thermal, em, or active sensors. In each case you need to research the basic technology involved and then design and research the sensor before you can install it on the ship. Active sensors, as well as fire control sensors, are required to target a ship.

Thanks, but yeah, it would be a bit silly if I had really figured out grav sensors before geos =P. Heh, my only concern now is how SLOW I am progressing. Almost two decades and I'm still researching the basics and barely having any expansion. I know the game is supposed to go slow, but I feel like I go TOO slow, y'know?
