i have made up a nice little chart for those that frequent Java with their miners
the outer ring is 14k from java, distance ships show up on scanners
red ring is 10k, when they actually become identifiable
if i see a player when i'm around there i'm gona go investigate and try RP, even if they end up being next to java, big area of space to avoid there.
Edit: dont worry, you have at least 15 minutes warning of my QCP coming as i pinball around 23 in a ship as big as the sun
