Re: Do Comm Channels work?
Not exactly. You can have an unbroken chain but no contact; for example at the start of a game.
Watch. Here's a linear map of some systems. E is a system the AI owns, A a aystem your ally owns, and F a system you own.
F-F-A-A-A-A-A-E-E-E
Unbroken chain, but unless you have seen one of the AI's ships, you won't have contact. Here comm channel transfer would work.
Whereas
F-F-A-A A-A-A-E-E-E
is a broken chain. Transfer wouldn't work.
That's theoretical. I haven't checked to see if it works that way- but I do know that if you have contact with an AI, then loose it, it's because something broke the warp chain between your systems.
