I'm trying to make it to the center, but I can't make the jump and the Grox keep nailing me down. I suppose what is most frustrating is that every angle I seem to take won't let me jump past a certain point always leaving the center elusively out of reach. - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge

There are many dead-end paths to the center of the galaxy: you have to back out and try a different path. It is extremely hard (impossible?) to get to the center of the galaxy without allying with the Grox (which will piss off everyone else). - Mark Trapp

I don't even have the option to anymore... that sucks... and yes there are many dead end paths. Once I get so far down the road of trying, I can't even get back out... star hopping becomes a game of chance the closer I get too. That is rather frustrating. - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge

I don't know if there is anything you can do that'll prevent the Grox from allying with you for the rest of the game, but you do have to do a lot to get them to like you. Check out: http://www.gamefaqs.com/compute... - Mark Trapp

Thanks, Mark. - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge

that's what I was afraid of... I made them very angry and getting them back on the friendly side isn't easy and has some bad consequences anyway... so it looks like I'm off to punch a hole! - Ken Stewart | ChangeForge
