Even though it is optimized for the shortest route in terms of travel distance, the midpoints lack NPC stations. It may also be preferrable to select midpoints with highsec entrances even though the Jump Freighter would be moving outbound. Lastly, there could be adjacent midpoints that are more suitable based on their activity levels.]] | ||
Jump freighters cannot use their jump drives and cynos to jump into highsec space, but they can jump out of highsec space. Thus, whenever you want to bring a jump freighter into high security space, you need to jump the freighter into a system adjacent to another highsec system and pilot your way to your destination as you would in a normal freighter. The travel beginning from your highest exit to your destination in highsec is the riskiest part of the journey. | Jump freighters cannot use their jump drives and cynos to jump into highsec space, but they can jump out of highsec space.
