HELP - Movement Chart needed !!

[Gryphin]

Something to note:
It is not based on how far the ship is ordered to go.
It is based on the potential speed of the ship.
A subtle differance.

[tbontob]

The formula for the time at which movement occurs is [30/ship speed][Movement number] rounded down

[Krsqk]

Also, simultaneous games only support ship movement up to 30. It won't bother you unless you're using some heavily modded stuff, but it's still a limit.

Good point, Gryph. And I had forgotten about EPP, since I use it so infrequently (like never). That's what I get for trying to think at two in the morning....

Excuse me ladies and gentlemen, no need to be alarmed - this is official business. I am hereby commandeering the good info in this thread for the Newbie FAQ. Credit will be given to the authors.

Please stand back while I take pictures.

Excuse me, madam? ... Why yes, this is a Phased Poloron bLaster in my holster. The handle is tooled ivory. I have never needed to use it in the line of duty.

Ok, ok. Enough chit chat. Thank you, you may all return to your normal business.

*Leaves, closes door, and trots away to the Newbie FAQ thread wondering what paragraph this stuff goes into*

Some in game observations:

EPM works first and the ship will move every day until the EPM is exhausted.

Late in the game with fast ships, I have often seen ships move on day one. In fact more often than on day two.

No testing here, just my game observations.
