New Ways To Travel: Transwarp, Particle Warp, and More!

it is FTL by going to \"slipspace\" which is kind aalternate dimensiony where distances are shorter and there you go at a set speed until exit slipspace. then you are at your location. it generally takes a week or so to get to location from the ship point of view

The trekiness of this thing?
QUANTUM SLISPTREAM!
The quantum slipstream drive was an advanced form of propulsion technology first encountered by the USS Voyager in the Delta Quadrant, which had the capability of exceeding a starship\'s maximum warp factor by an unprecedented degree. Similar in principle to the transwarp technology utilized by the Borg, it was originally developed by a Delta Quadrant race designated by the Borg as \"Species 116.\"
Quantum slipstream drive operated by routing energy through the vessel\'s main deflector, which then focused a quantum field, allowing the vessel to penetrate the quantum barrier. In order to maintain the slipstream, the phase variance of the quantum field had to be constantly adjusted, or the slipstream would collapse, violently throwing the ship back into normal space.

HHGTG ones might be a bit hard to code, especially the Infinite Improbability Drive since it is essentially a narrativium (the mineral that radiates plot into characters, usually non-existent in low magic universes) explosion that causes reality to shift so that unlikely and comical plots occur, its radius extending into the past, present, future, and all regions of Hitchhiker\'s Guide Reality space, with the possible exeptions of Plural Zones unless Arthur Dent can act as a carrier for the Improbability.
