Tanuvein: Just curious. I read about this game on the CRPG Addict's blog (brilliant, recommend you check it out if you haven't) and it sounds amazing. I'm not a big fan of graphing my own maps, however, so I was wondering if that's necessary. It's something I pretty much only endure for Might and Magic.
Starflight 1:
The map I found in the file had the fluxes drawn in already. :( We might have to go look for a clean map. The game does require you to keep notes, so that you can follow up on your clues and win the game.
Starflight 2: (very minor spoiler)
There are certain zones with continuum fluxes that are very tricky to navigate. In my opinion you should make some kind of map of those particular areas so that you can navigate these fluxes. If you decide to learn the hard way, you will go through a lot of time bouncing through fluxes. Also there is a very big nebula and the stars inside the nebula are not marked on the map.
