About
What does this website do?
This website finds routes across New Eden using the wormhole system Thera as hub. Since Thera has multiple static WH connections to highsec, lowsec and nullsec it can serve as shortcut or allow parties to circumvent hostile systems while traveling to their destiniation.
How reliable is the information?
We are using the current known WH connections that are published on the Eve Scout website as basis for our route calculations. All information is community sources, but tends to be pretty reliable in our experience.
To avoid showing routes that might already have expired be will only use WH connections with an expected remaining lifetime of at least 1 hour in our route calculations (can be turned off)
How does it work?
Basics
To find routes through Thera please enter the name of the origin and destination system and click on the search button to start the route finder. After a short while the route finder will show a list of all routes found sorted by number of jumps. This list will also contain the direct route between origin and distination (if there is any) as comparision to the Thera routes. Per default only routes are shown that do not have more jumps than the direct route. (can be changed) Note that the maximum number of routes found is limted to 25.
Here is an example of a search between Amarr and EF-F36:
Each route can be displayed by clicking on 'Show Route'
Here is a short explanation of the columns in the route table
- Total Jumps: Total number of jumps from origin to destination including WH-jumps.
- Est. Life: Estimated lifetime of the route. Routes with a lifetime of less than 1 hour will be highlighted if shown.
- Entry System: Name of solar system with the entry WH to Thera.
- Jumps to Entry: Number of jumps from origin to the entry system.
- Exit System: Name of solar system with the exit WH from Thera.
- Jumps to Exit: Number of jumps from the exit system to the destination.
Options
There are a few options available to tweak the route finder.
- Max. jumps: Allows to increase the maximum number of allowed jumps in a route. The defaul is 'optimal' which only returns Thera routes that are shorter or euqual to the direct route.
- Avoid Highsec: When turned on the route finder will competely avoid high sec systems. This feature is useful for pirate fleets that can not travel easily in highsec, but may result in longer routes and does not always find a route.
- Show <1 hour lifetime: When turned on the route finder will include WH connections that have an estimated lifetime of less then 1 hour.
