I’m not sure. I guess because they go hard in the simulation aspect of the game. Although if we’re being realistic, it’s unrealistic that you’d have an interstellar space ship without an autopilot. I read that there are mods to enable autopilot, but I also read they can get your account banned, so I stopped looking into them.
Why doesn’t Elite let you travel offline? Like, set the destination, close the game, and reopen it 3h later.
Because they decided to make the game always online in a persistent galaxy so the possibility a ganker finds has to be respected.
