Piloting the Stardrifter

Now, the most important functions the computer is capable of are those relating to the movement of the Stardrifter. Select the "Flight Control Drive" option from the main menu by clicking it with the left mouse button, and have a look at the options that appear on the sub-menu to the right. The first of these is "Set Remote Target". Select this in the same way.

You will now be presented with a little cross-hair that moves as you turn around. This allows you to select the star you want to visit, so point it at a star through one of the windows and double-click the right mouse button. Now, underneath the menu options on the main screen, some details appear about the star you have selected.

Stardrifters travel between the stars using their powerful lithium powered Vimana drives. Once you have selected your remote target, IE the star you want to visit, select the "Start Vimana Flight" option. Your Stardrifter will now power up its Vimana Drive and head at incredible speed towards your remote target. You'll notice that information appears on your HUD regarding your distance from the target.
