Navigation is the art of steering the Daedalus to its current destination. It is performed by accessing the Command Terminal at the Bridge, which requires the 
Commander title or successful usage of the 
Hacker Kit to access. This can be done while 
Dirty.
Steering
Steering the ship costs 1 
for each 90 degrees in change of heading provided that both lateral reactors are functioning correctly. For instance, a turn from north to east will cost 1 and a turn from north to south will cost 2 .
If a lateral reactor is broken, the ship will not be able to turn in that direction. This will make it cost up to 3 to turn the ship at a time. For instance, if the right lateral reactor is broken, the ship will not be able to turn right and instead has to make 3 left turns.
Warning: Some people have reported that turning the ship from West to North always costs 3 , even if a lateral reaction is not broken, but this does not always seem to be the case.
Turning the ship may also damage surrounding hunters if they are present.
Advancing
- 1 to move the ship, provided fuel is loaded into the chamber
- 2 to return to Sol or go to Eden.
If there are Aracks present they will prevent the ship from moving which will be notified in the log, but is still consumed by attempting.
Activity level represents percentage of active crew members compared to 
inactive.
