Default jump drive distance cut by 25%.

I don't know if this is intentional or not, but it seems that the jump distance has dropped from 20 km to 15 km.

It should be 8 sectors and would only be reduced if the sector size was reduced.

I'll test it more.

I guess I'm the only who think so, though it still seems a little short.

I think it should let you warp one system instead of 8 sectors... Just my opinion anyways

You can adjust it for your singleplayer (or own server) by changing a number in the starmade -> data -> config -> blockbehaviorconfig file.
Open it up with a text editor (notepad++ for example) and adjust

• <DistanceInSectors>8</DistanceInSectors>

located under the jumpdrive section, should be near the top. Don't forget to save

I know about the configuration options. My main motivation for this thread was to see if anyone else noticed an apparent change in the effective jump distance.

The actual in-game jump distance is based on a calculation that draws from more than just one variable. Sometimes someone will tweak a calculation and find it has unintentional consequences. And it just seems to me that the effective distance has changed even though the default is still 8 sectors... unless they decreased the default sector size without me noticing.
