Sigma-60 and Omicron-64 were literally deleted and they were connected to the rest of the map. I was surprised that Omicron-96 and 93 weren't deleted either in 4.87. If those systems can be deleted, I don't see why places like Yukon and Tau-42 can't be deleted either.
As for deleted systems like Yukon, make their jumps intersect with another jump hole so that players can't jump back into them, like the Unknown > Pennsylvania hole. Then they'd depopulate by themselves and could be deleted.

This was on my to-do list, which I have just completed.
my vision of the omicrons is composed of theta, gamma, alpha, beta, minor, mu, kappa, delta, iota, both majors, 90 and 92. No connection to Alaska.
Keep it vanilla with in-system additions to keep in line with mod development. And keep the stuff that makes the order and nomads playable. The idea is to turn delta into a hotspot like it deserves and reduce the amont of redundant systems that only create distance between factions that would normally all meet in Delta.

If it were that easy, we'd have done it by now.
What happens to anyone who's docked on a base in a system we delete? What happens to anyone who's F1'd in that system? What happens to anyone who dies who was last docked on a base in that system?
I do believe deleting (obviously not manually) all references to said system and moving anyone inside them to a neighboring system is an option, no?
Whatever you think, Echo, .85 Alpha-Eta-Theta route was way better.
How about you stop your server killing experiments and use something that has proven itself to be good already?

You can take your attitude elsewhere - I was not responsible for, or involved with, the system layout for 4.87.0. Therefore, any improvement I am offering here is still an improvement, however small it may be. Besides, a simple diagram which is just a proposition - not set in stone - is hardly going to "kill the server".
Omicron-81 can be shrunk before we consider deletion.

It may have been a nice system, but the bases there didn't make a lot of sense. However, my current focus is the Omicrons, not so much the Omegas. It's not problem-free, but the former region requires more immediate attention.
