The closest two players are merely two solar systems away from one another. The furthest I believe is seven. In case anyone was curious.The way it is works is if two players jump into a system simultaneously without military escort, than there is a 25% chance of conflict.If one player has a military escort, it is a 50% chance of conflict.If both players have a military escort, it is 75% chance.You may think "Well I just won't use military escorts at all!" well there is still a chance regardless and if they do have an escort it fairs badly for you.

Shouldn't we be the ones to RP what happens within our first contact and see if it results in hostilities or not?
