The simulator has just been updated to allow Endeavour to travel between star systems. This significantly widens the scope for exploration and means a much greater range of mission scenarios can be supported.
A new system allowing Endeavour to visit new star systems has been added to the simulator, vastly increasing the variety and adventure of possible mission scenarios. The FTL Drive is based on key piece of technology recovered from extra-terrestrial vessels.
