It was desperately needed and caused massive economy issues. Besides, all I did was provide the possibility to have this happen, toggling it on or off is not my problem, it's up to the admins.

This "nerf" if you can call it one simply fix a massive problem lying within the jumpdrives themselves that prevented any possibility to tune them and provide new functions, which will now be coming as they won't be overpowered anymore.

for some reason, im seeing carrier raids resulting in snubs pews in the future.

@Xenon drama sarcasm much?

@Devs and Admins: kudos. a lot of great developments lately.

Instead of nerf hammer to all, would be better to separate them. How about making a jump drive only for trading vessels which will be able to jump 4 systems? Military jump drives should remain as they were - jump everywhere if you have coordinates. It is already hard enough to make survey (or buy it) make codes (or buy them) and use specific ship to jump once - few would bother to do it.

Also those that say "remove it" - that's not a solution for a lot of players are here because of these features. Also nearly every sci-fi ship we've seen before (being from star trek or star wars) and now (games like EvE, mass effect etc...) all of them have a way to fly with light speed. Its good feature that Disco have an equipment to provide that so instead of removing it entirely it should be fixed properly.

I'm pirating transport, then he comes on fighter, bomber, Gb and even on battleship ones to kill me and doing that without even saying aanything. I donno why you are so complaning about JD at all. If you can't use it, let others do that. If you want to have some interaction in game with jump drives fly to the system where Jumps starts and do whatever you like in RP. But you guys are too lazy to do that. And i was atacked without any RP 27 times now. Is that your "interaction in game" you so much talking about? Got all 27 screens, but never reported on forums. I think that better to make all JD to work like it was before because i really lost a bit interest in game because of it. I like to jump trade. I really do. And you people just can't even emagine how hard to organize any big jump operation. I jumped many times with 8 5k transports and noone stopped us. Why? because you all just lazy to intercept.

e.g. JD Mk IV - Four Systems
JD Mk III - Three Systems
JD Mk II - Two Systems

Give some reason to have different modules
