This one ought to be easy, but there are implications... here it is:

When you return a jump map, can the result set include the distance (in parsecs) from the center hex?

Alternately, if you don't want to do it that way, could you instead include the galactic coordinates from the worlds in the list? I can compute distances myself that way, no problem.

Or a third way which you might think of. (I'd rather not make subsequent calls just to get distances or coordinates...)
 
You sir, you, are the man.

And your map is da bomb. Thank you. I shall plan to cache data as I query it, so that I won't ping your map all of the time.
