Hyperdrive
Hyperdrives allow a starship to enter hyperspace and travel vast distances quickly. They can be detected with the sign text [hyperdrive].
Two chetherite must be in each hopper of the hyperdrive to jump. The chetherite is consumed upon a successful jump. If there is not enough chetherite, the ship will fail to jump.
Larger hyperdrives consume more chetherite (as they have more hoppers), but also have a faster travel time in hyperspace. Hyperdrive warm up times can be reduced by owning Claimable Systems.
A Navigation Computer is required for most ships to enter hyperspace.
