                    The Device 168 Universe Explorer Macro

        Wonder why we've developed this macro?  Ultimately in any game you
chose to play in, be it UU or TradeWars or whatever, the more information you
can obtain about the game environment, the more effective a player you can
become.
        Using this macro, we've been able to explore nearly every sector of the
game universe without "physically" moving the ship.  We utilize the specific way
the device interacts with the game to accumulate data on nearly every sector of
the universe.  This allows us to effectively use the limited game time we have.
        The name of the device gives a clue on how we obtain the information we
desire.  Device 168 is the Sector Finder Pack.  It is comprised of the Sector
Path Finder and a Sector Path Finder Reporter.  This combination of devices
when used to chart a path from one sector to any destination sector displays
complete information on what's in every other sector in the path chain from
start to terminus.  Neat way to explore the universe rapidly.
        Now in the macro, there is an option to select the increment of sector
exploration advancement.  What this is, is the number you add to the last
terminus sector explored.  If the number is 1, the terminus sector number
advances by 1.  If the number is 2, then the terminus sector number advances by
2.  So forth and so on.
        Now, depending on how old the universe is, sectors are arrayed
quasi-linearly.  That is, often times sectors have links that are sequentially
arrayed, sector 11 follows sector 12 for example.  By utilizing this aspect,
choosing the right increment can allow you to explore the universe and cover
new ground on each scan.
