=== What is an Ion Storm and why do I keep ending up in them? ===
Ion storms, also called warp storms, are a daily hazard for all space pilots. These storms interfere with the normal operation of the engines. To jump out of a storm you must find the "storm exit" Indicated by a green "+" on your [[:HUD]].
=== How do you know if you are in a storm? ===
=== How do I avoid storms and stay safe when in a storm? ===
Ion storms usually last for only a few hours but they can be very deadly. These storms are favorite hangouts for pirates and rogue bots. While in Gray Space, rogue bots will not be in ion storms, however, pirates may still be!
Some ways to stay alive when you are caught in a storm
#Keep and eye on your radar for hostiles (red dots)
While using the Navigation computer to plot out your course is a great convenience, the standard jump path is the shortest distance between the two sectors. The risk of using the standard jump path is that you often jump across and into storms. Pilots may avoid some storms by using the more time consuming method of plotting a course of shorter jumps around active storms and asteroid belts. Your radar can only spot enemies 500m away, so don't think you are out of danger when you see no bots.
