Thanks so much! There are currently no methods for generating charts. It's something I'd like to expand upon eventually - the space travel and starship stuff was definitely the hardest part of this.
A good way to approach it might be to generate astro-nav routes the same way you might do point crawls in other games. And then the travel lanes/routes might be a mix of direct (when possible), or avoiding hazards like asteroid fields, political zones, etc. I think in most cases any point could connect to just about any other point, but including gaps in the routes the PCs have access to can be a good challenge. And it gives them something to spend credits on if they are really into having the most convenient routes and updated star charts.
If there was enough interest at some point I think that would be really cool! After I get the next update out I’ll have to start looking into options on how best to do that. 🙂
What a cool comment! Thanks for saying that. I hope others who love the Into the Odd style of play and SWN/Sci-fi settings will get some use out of this.

Lovely layout. Is there a method for randomly generating the Astro-Navigation charts?
