Way points

[Rich1952]

Question: why can't I set way points in this game.

its not built into the game mechanics. all you can do is plot a 1 way passage to someplace. You need to manually organise your steps and remember what it is your ships are going to be doing after step 1 lol

In travel between systems it is actually possible to set up waypoints. You can go to your nav computer. Add a name for the waypoint if you are in between systems and click add cordinates.  That said you aren't likely going to need this since it is usually best just to set a course to systems you already have in the nav computer.
