Question, not issue

[jonathan-rowley]

Im trying to figure out some distance math for the game so i ran some tests and im not sure the consistency. it was only after i stumbled upon this repo that i got some hope.

How is the distance measured between systems when it comes to calculate travel time?

I know the warp speed of the ship + Officer bonus + research bonus + exocomps all contribute but im looking for a base formula that i can apply these attributes.

I found this in systems/kaus_media_17.json:

  "name": "Kaus Media",
  "capture_nodes": 0,
  "connected_systems": [
    {
      "$ref": "systems/azha_20",
      "distance": 6,
      "warp": 13
    }
  ]

How is the connected_systems->distance used?
