Autopilot avoidance: Difference between revisions

==Avoiding Constellations and Regions==

Right-clicking on a solar system in the Map will give you the option to add that solar system to your watch list.  However, what if you wanted to avoid an entire constellation or an entire region without adding every single system in that constellation or region to your avoidance list?  For example, [Sovereignty|Sovereign Nullsec] (Player-Claimable NullSec) can be considerably dangerous to enter under certain circumstances.  Being able to set entire NullSec regions to your avoidance list would make it easy to set up your avoidance list to not plot routes through areas of space claimed by other player corporations or alliances.  Let's begin by avoiding the Cache region (not to be confused with the cache of your browser).

Go to the WORLD MAP CONTROL PANEL (F10) and click the SEARCH tab, then type Cache into the search field. (Note: if you are using [[Map Beta]], use the Search field in the Route Planner window.)

Click the SEARCH button or press Return/Enter on your keyboard. When the region Cache shows up as a result, right-click on the result and select AVOID REGION.  Now go back to the AVOIDANCE LIST tab.  You will now see the Cache region on your avoidance list, and it's unnecessary to add any individual systems within Cache to the avoidance region.  This process may be repeated for each region you want to avoid.

Pilots who wish to avoid player-sovereign space may wish to follow the above instructions to add the following regions to their avoidance list:

This is, however, not an exhaustive list of regions in which sovereignty can be claimed. For a more exhaustive list it is recommended to refer to the in-game map, with the various filters under the "sovereignty" menu, or to third party websites such as [https://evemaps.dotlan.net DotLan].    Having those regions on your avoidance list will prevent your autopilot from setting a course to any player-sovereign system as long as (1) your autopilot is set to obey the Avoidance List and (2) the waypoint, itself, isn't a player-sovereign system one jump away from Empire space.  (Remember that the autopilot will ignore whether or not a waypoint is on the Avoidance List; the autopilot just cares about whether or not there are systems leading up to the waypoint that aren't on the Avoidance List.) Once those regions are added to your avoidance list, your avoidance list should look something like this:

 

 

You may, at your own discretion, also have whatever other systems, constellations, or regions that you want on that list, like Jita or Rancer. For a list of systems to probably add to this list, see [[Known pirate systems]].
