Jump Plot dificulty

[NDS]

Hi,

I can't seem to find in the T20 handbook just how difficult ploting a jump becomes as you get closer to a planet. Presumably the dificulty would go up by maybe 1 point for ever diamater under 100 you are closer.

Also, How long do the various steps involved in making a jump (listed on p. 335 of T20HB) take. Can they be rushed in combat?

Thanks.

I don't think plotting the jump gets anymore difficult the chance of misjumps just increases independent of however skilled your navigator is.

Interesting, as Traveller canon suggests that jumping within 100 diameters of a planet is dangerous and jumping within 10 is suicidal. I will just add a scaled dificulty as apropriate but if someone knows where this is addressed in the T20 book It would be great if they could point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

I think the chance for misjump is wrong in the parapragh for misjumps DC21????
if that is suppose to be a small chance I think they meant dc of 1.
within 100 it +5 if within 10 it +15
