Captains can chart a course by setting waypoints by right-clicking on a sector. A blue circle around this cone shows how far the ship can warp and which sectors are in warp range. Crews can locate themselves and which direction their ship is facing on the starmap by a white cone. The starmap is used for navigation and shows every accessible sector of space.
