UGH, so I've gone to Zot Fot Pic space and made contact everything was going great.....until I tried to leave. I entered hyperspace and made it about 30 ft before the first ship stopped me and now I literally can not get away, every time I beat a ship there's another waiting. In 3 hours I have made it about 40 ft. If it's not an Ur Quan it's a Sylandro probe, the only plus side is i've made a ton of cash killing the ships. Any ideas for how to get away?

Ur-Quan space is a really dangerous place. You might be able to fight your way out if you're lucky, but your best option is to load a previous save.

Yeah pretty much what I figured, gonna try to fight my way out for now as I'd hate to toss away all those RU. With time and patience I can rip up the Ur Quan ships with the Spathi Eluder's, thanks for the reply!

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

It's very helpful to have max thrusters, and to leave the system already facing the right direction.

You also may occasionally need to control the ship manually in hostile territory - you will use more fuel, but may be able to avoid interception.

I've had this happen occasionally. If you keep fighting then after 10-15 encounters or so you should be safe. I think it's safest to only go into ZFP territory with max trusters.

UPDATE: Yay!!! I got out. After another hour of encounters there was enough space to manually pilot out. Max thrusters and turning jets here I come on a side note how did the Ur Quan dominate the universe if a Spathi with homing missiles can wipe up hordes of them.

The Eluder trick also doesn't work on human pilots - the entire thing is an artifact of the AI (particularly the incredibly stupid Marauder AI).
