.. I go, i pick up my cargo. "Good, now bring it back to sector 4638 promptly."

... Uh.. Yeah. That's... where?

hmm that would fun to search for

that would be the sector you came with the mission from

hehehehe

i think...

I think there is some order. at first I thought it was organized the way chessboards are (letter, number)
but now I've no idea!

Woops. Forgot to put that through my "MakeSectorIDIntoNameTheUsersCanRead" function. Added to my to-do list.

are they arranged like a chess board then?
(and should I go looking for secret sectors)

no secret sectors YET

But maybe Soon TM :D

There are 256 Sectors in a single system.
Follow the systems numerically 1-? and you'll find you system.

First, take your system...4638 and subtract 256 evenly as many times as possible...so..18

System: 18

The remainder is 30 even, so you subtract 16 from that once to get...14...

SO!

System: 18
Row (lateral, from top): 2
Column (vert, from left): 14

And there's your mystery system


EDIT: The systems are arranged like a Battleship board I beleive. The top row corisponds to a letter and the columns corispond to a number, thus generating coordinates like A-16, L-7, D-2 and others.

You sank our numbering scheme ship!

Except he was off by one system. :)

Unlike you, who -always- got that right.

Uh oh, uh oh! Look out Waylon, a1k0n's on a tear!

;-)

No, Columns (verticle) are lettered and Rows (horizontal) are numbered. Like a spreadsheet or, yes, like a Battleship™ board.
