The Verse as the London Tube Map

PDF Version which will always look better: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f3l2gvxxy4rhni0/tube%20map.pdf?dl=0 Reddit version of this post, which is more likely to get updates than this one: This is what I am parodying: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/kte4sf/the_verse_as_the_london_tube_map_explanation_and/

Having been teaching myself vector graphics over the past year, I thought it time to attempt a parody of the London Underground map, and what better network to draw out than Star Citizen's Jump Points? This is what I am parodying: http://content.tfl.gov.uk/standard-tube-map.pdf

I quickly realised this would not look like the Tube Map if I did all of the Jump Points (too complex) nor if I only did the large ones (not complex enough). Therefore I went for a happy medium, drawing all of the large JPs, and enough of the medium ones to make the network make sense while including all of the inhabited systems. Besides the Vanduul systems standing in as the District Line, I didn't draw those systems which are currently not connected to the network, and I left off one Unclaimed system too (a crisp high five to anyone who can figure out which).

There's bound to be mistakes, or outcomes as a result of those rules which make this map utterly useless, but the point of this exercise was really more of a fun joke than to make anything useful. Still might be handy if you are planning around only using large JP's.

This was hugely inspired by u/Selbie_LeGrille 's incredibleTransit Map which is my go-to map and thoroughly assisted me in making my own map: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/4f4xlt/its_a_map_a_galactic_transit_map_for_star_citizen/

My map, like theirs, was also inspired and assisted by Zhatt: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/3pqjuy/i_found_it_difficult_to_see_routes_in_other_maps/ Archilele: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/community/citizen-spotlight/4259-Archileles-Galactic-Guide-Transit-Keywords-Planets

I'll do an FAQ if people A some FQ's.
