You allow switching the player to a different sector, but only if the player already has a ship in that sector. Therefore when you do that, you shouldn't start the player in a drone 60 km away from their ship. You should instead start them in that ship.
Reasons why:
- Once your drone arrives, NPC start arriving and attacking your craft ship. But your craft ship is unable to defend itself, and it takes you 3 minutes to connect with it, so all you can do is watch it be destroyed while you try to get to it.
- I have lost my main ship before because the server crashed while I was in a firefight, and when I was able to restart it and reconnect to it, it started me in a drone so far away from that the ship, that all I could do was watch it be destroyed, and a server crash should NEVER destroy your ship.
- The whole purpose of switching to a sector that you have a ship in is to tend your ship. So let us tend our ship. Don't make us waste minutes getting to the ship before we can tend it. Even when you have only 40 craft ships, making us waste just 45 seconds for the switch to happen, and then 1 minute to get to the ship, and then another 15 seconds getting the ship mining again makes it take over an hour and a half just to get the craft ships mining again before you can get back to actually playing the game. And it isn't too much longer than that, and the craft ships are running out of stuff to do, so you have to start the process all over again.
