Jump range is a [[ship]] statistic that determines which [[stars]] are close enough for the ship to get to through hyper space. If a star is 19ly (light year) away from the ship, and the ship's jump range is lower than 19ly, the ship will not be able to directly jump there.
Jump range is a [[ship]] statistic that displays the maximum length of a [[Hyperspace]] jump. If the distance to a [[Star system|system]] is greater than the ship's jump range, the ship is not able to jump there.


The jump range is determined by two factors: the mass of the ship and the [[Frame Shift Drive]] (FSD). This means the jump range can be increased by installing a better FSD, using lightweight modules, and carrying as little cargo as possible.
The jump range is determined by two factors: the mass of the ship, the [[Frame Shift Drive]] (FSD) and a Boost from [[Synthesis]] or a [[Jet-Cone]]. This means the jump range can be increased by the following.
* A higher class and/or higher grade FSD
* Lower [[Outfitting|ship module]] weight
* Carrying less cargo and fuel
* Synthesis of a boost
* Gaining a boost in a neuton stars Jet-Cone


Unladen - shows the jump range '''with no cargo''' on board.
Engineers can upgrade the FSD for more range and other modules for lower weight.

Some ships have better jump range than other ships, for example the [[Explorer|explorers]]: ''(not engineered)''
