As the Omicron Update is still MIA, in the next patch Omicron Zeta will receive a set of changes in order to improve server gameplay as this system has been a severe pain for a large amount of Omicron players. Nobody really wants to fly 200/300k to encounter a player.

The general layout has been severely shrinked, halving travel times in general. Mu JH<>Delta JH and Rho JH<>Delta JH have been reduced to ~30k. Nomads have been brought closer as well as the average distance from Iota's JH to any other in Zeta is between 30k to 40k.

Rho/Delta/Mu/Iota JHs have been placed relatively close to field edges to avoid problems with capital ships stuck in rocks.
Do not build a POB in Zeta until the update, otherwise your base will end up most likely anywhere but where you'd like it to be.

Here's how the map is going to look like.

Yeah the damage zones have been shrinked accordingly.

It'd actually be really awesome if modular system-by-system updates could be rolled out, using this patch as a template.

Large and unused systems could be turned into dead ends with different places of interest as a RP sandbox (like Lost).
