Formula needed

I am looking to see how flight time is calculated for each ship.

For example:

To fly ships from point x to point y will take z amount of time based upon base speed, engine tech, and distance traveled.

well if anyone has the tool i made for ze that can help you on it.

unfortunately after my laptop crashed twice all my backup went pfft and the online share that i was using blocked all contents along with it.

so if any of you can share my tools it would be magnificent.

usually its base speed times % increase of engine tech is the ship speed.

1 orbit distance u can get from fleet menu along with 1 system distance to 1 galaxy distance.

all u do is calculate a radial distance from point one to point two.

sorry dont have the exact calculation. my tool had it. its a pretty complicated calculation.

It is indeed a very complicated issue. We want to put it on Zorg Tools site sometime.

I have incorporated a flight calculator in one of my websites.
