How do you go through Wormholes? It doesn't seem to say anything about them in the manual or tutorials and i want to get the achievement.

Once you research the travel technology, just select a ship and click it directly into the middle of the wormhole and it will pop out on the other side. Takes a bit of fiddling first time, but after that it's painless.

So you need the long range star system thing?

Nope. It's another tech specifically for wormholes a bit farther along.

You've got a strange username.

A bit off-topic, but rather than start a new thread called "wormholes," I'll post here.

Has anyone else had the problem of ships really liking wormholes? Like, even if there's a faster way to a system in another system, it will take whatever route involves a wormhole. It's extremely obnoxious and a waste of time. Anyone else have this issue? Should I describe it better?

So your saying instead of going from planet A to planet B, they go from A to Wormhole (Anathor Galaxy) to Wormhole (Back to orig Galaxy) to Planet B?

Close. It's only for star-to-star stuff. So, if I want am on planet A in Star System 1, and want to be on planet B in Star System 2, my ships will not go from planet A to star 1 to star 2 to planet B. They use a wormhole in Star System 1 to go to Star System 3, and from there to star 3, and then to star 2. Adding about ten minutes of travel time, assuming they don't randomly decide to start flying straight up instead of jumping, like they sometimes do.

yes the more annoying part = how ships fly... i hopes thats either done in 1.1 or fixed later on, i.e. ships getting stuck in eachother..........

the AI wil always pick what he thinks is the shortest route
going through a wormhole i believe = not considerd a jump, so if it takes 6 jumps to go to star system 2 while using star-to-star method and 5 jumps (wormhole-to-wormhole is not a jump) it wil take the wormhole


i also cannot imagine why going through a wormhole = so extremely slow, they pop up on the other side instantaneous.... whilst u have to wait for ships to travel star-to-star

only if theres a fleet @ the wormhole instead of the star, but you've got manual controls for that

The only solution for now is manual flight, tell your ships to go to your star, then the other star and to the planet,
