  4. So, i've noticed something and I thought I should log it... Doing all these hyperspace jumps, plus an extra couple just to compare my results... When you're transiting in witchspace itself, the hyperspace conduit seems to roll around you, to the left - either that or your ship is rolling in the conduit, but it can't tell either way because there aren't any reference points; Anyway, onto the effect... Basically, when you are rolling in the conduit, your ship will exit the jump with the roll axis facing as if you did the roll in realspace.

  6. I did an experiment where I kept the ship oriented a specific way with the core of the galaxy on my left, I rolled in the conduit as normal, and when I dropped out the galaxy was at a weird angle, but I was still facing the star as you'd expect, indicating my direction of facing hadn't changed - only the roll axis had.

  8. The nature of witchspace /still/ isn't well understood, but at this point after a few jumps and a bit of reading using my jury-rigged remote GalNet connection - I am a Hyperdrive Technician after all - I've managed to come up with a theory.
  9.  
  10. Reminder: Thank the Thargoids for disrupting my hyperspace conduit so frequently, without observing the effects of that first-hand, i'd never have put this theory together.
  11.  
  12. There'll probably be more on this in my next log,
  13. McCoy out.
