Subset Games Forum

So i make a good run for once, grab a mantis crewman almost immediately, get to 4th sector (happens to be Zoltan).. and the exit cannot be reached - it's out of reach from any point. All i can do is wait for the rebel fleet to catch up to me.. quite frustrating isnt it ?
Should i submit a bug for this ? I still have the savegame.

Yes, you should submit this as a bug. Send the developers a message on twitter, and stick it in the technical help forum.

Are you sure there wasn't some super long alternate route that requires you to fight the rebels multiple times?

Nope, absolutely sure. I got there in advance, and tried every jump point around it. FTL jumps are limited in distance, and if the sector exit is too far away from every other jump point you cannot reach it. This is what just happened to me...
PS: i am not on twitter or facebook.

Well, it's happened to me that I took the wrong turn and hoped for all of my life that I would be able to jump to the exit, but I apparently took the wrong turn and the *right* beacon to reach the exit was 5 jumps away, with the rebels having already covered two.

I died.

Also, it's all just luck, simply restart and hope you won't miss the guys that died in honor by the rouge-like system.
