No, it was much different from what I see above.
OK, what I have right now:
Starting Date: February 17, 2155
After doing the ordinary base stuff...
Sortie #1: * Mine Mercury, Io, Pluto, get Fwiffo, return to base.
Sortie #2: * Set up full thrusters, and as many turning jets as possible - leave systems in direction you will go, leave with 95 units fuel. * Leave by Mar 9 for Alpha Pavonis to get warp pod, Beta Pegasi for rainbow world, mine Beta Chandrashekar 2. Arilou portal, get portal. * Portal #10, return to base.
Sortie #3: * Leave with units of fuel & capacity for 210 units fuel. * Direct trip to get to Pkunk. * Portal #6 to Arcturus for caster. * Portal #11 - do fake God impression at Alpha Tauri. * Portal #9, visit Gamma Scorpii for egg shell & Epsilon Scorpii to get dirt on Syra. * Portal #8 to Syreen to present egg case, * visit Orz (go directly) at Gamma Vulpeculae, go to Alpha Vulpeculae to refuel with the Melnorme and Delta Vulpeculae to get Taalo Rock. * Portal #8 to Umgah space, get toadie. * Portal #1 to Druuge, sell eggshell for Rosy Sphere. * Portal #5 to Camelopardalis to drop shuttle off. * Portal #8 to Syreen to get Organon instructions. * Portal #7 to visit Thraddash (meet one first and tell them to attack enemy if Ilwrath not there yet) to get aqua helix. * Portal #15 to Utwig/Supox, go to Beta Librae to get Ultron, repair Ultron, meet an Utwig in space on trip to Epsilon Hyades (use caster). Present Ultron, get bomb at Zeta Hyades. * Portal #9 to Mycon, tell them about Organon, get sun device from Beta Brahe. * Portal #11 to Procyon, get returned to base.
Sortie #4: * Portal #16 to fight Sa-Matra.
Finishing Date: October 06, 2155.
Would you mind recounting what order you did things in? Was it simply my further-optimized plan, or was it different? You do seem to have saved about a month and a half, which is solid.

The line with the smiley should read:
* Leave with 140 units of fuel & capacity for 210 units fuel.

Must be too late/early for me...the numbers are off of a quasispace map I have here.
Portal #10 is the Sol portal. Portal #6 is the Arcturus portal. Portal #11 is the one that puts you in the middle of Dillrat space. Portal #9 is the one between Yehat and Mycon space. Portal #8 is the Spathi/Zoq-Fot portal. Portal #1 puts you in Druuge territory. Portal #5 is the Camelopardalis portal. Portal #7 is the Ur-Quan Monoceratosis (NW corner) portal Portal #15 is the Supox/Utwig portal Portal #16 is the Crateris portal.
Look for the Beamer Quasispace portal map - that's what the numbers are from.

I searched for it. I didn't see a specific plan, but she did say she beat the game in November 2155.
I'm too lazy to search right now, but Kohr-Ah Primat said she finished a game rather quickly once. She mentioned the date, and its in these forums somewhere...

I did a better job of tracking down the Thraddash, so I chopped one day off of my time (and yes I have a screen shot). Can't think of much more to cut off of the plan I posted, so we'll go with October 05, 2155.
Any ideas on cutting this down even more?

I tried that, actually. I stopped it when I realized that I had enough resources just from mining Beta Chandrashekar 2 and saved a couple of days. Thanks for the try, though.
