Is it possible for the hub and/or HQ to appear in the starting sector or are they excluded?

Generally they can't be close to the start sector, at least 10 jumps away

Poopy. That means I have to dump a significant amount of time into the terracorp start before I find out if the HQ is in a decent place.

I guess it’s called X-treme Insanity for a reason!😅

Ok, follow-up, is it possible for the HQ to start on the wrong side of the Terran HSAP, thus rendering it impossible or am I just missing it somehow when I hit 240+ sectors…?

I’ve had three or four starts where I hit every sector I know of that didn’t require HSAP and couldn’t find it.

It should be findable from your start sector without travelling through any HSAP and it should be fairly central in the sector

It is possible that you havnt explored some sectors full if you just go in then out again it might be too far from the gate to pick up.

Or that you have simply missed some sectors

👍

As long as I know it can’t be somewhere unreachable, I’ll know it’s not pointless to keep looking.
