Usage

Overview

Send a GET request to one of these end-points:

• params/

  – Linear coefficients which relate the star radius to the Wing Signal regions.

• data/

  – Raw data array with measured drop distances for stars of varying mass and radius.

The response content is a JSON object with contents as described below.

Parameters

The returned object contains the following fields:

• "dest-lock": A line below which Destination Lock should work.
• "no-lock": A line below which a no-lock blind drop will be needed.

Each of these lines is itself a JSON object with the following fields:

• "c0": The constant term.
• "c1": The linear term.
• "input": A string describing the unit of the domain.
• "output": A string describing the unit of the range.

The linear equation is Output = Constant + Linear × Input.
To use it:

• Input a solar radius to obtain distance values for dest-lock and no-lock.
• Compare those against the Wing Signal distance after a (failed) Nav-lock drop.
• If the signal distance is below the dest-lock value, use Destination Lock.
• If between the dest-lock and no-lock values, use a blind drop.
• If at or above the no-lock value, this is at or beyond the exclusion zone.

Data

The returned object contains only a field named "stars", which is a JSON array.
The array elements are JSON objects, one for each star data record, with the following fields:

• "sys": System name string.
• "body": Body name string, blank if there is only one star in the system.
• "sm": Star mass in Solar masses.
• "sr": Star radius in Solar radii.
• "nl": Distance string to the exclusion zone Wing Signal after a Nav-lock attempt.
• "dl": Distance string to the exclusion zone Wing Signal after a Destination Lock attempt.

The distance strings are a number followed by a unit for non-zero values, otherwise just "0".
For example, the "nl" value is "3.92Mm" for Arare, but "10.1Ls" for X Persei D.
