For a location, my country is outside of charted space. To make this worse, my nation does not yet have the ability to make star maps and is relying on star maps that are estimated to be anywhere from 2000 to as much as 5000 years old. The result is there are multiple entries for the location of Sol, each one possibly being a separate star with that name or each one being the same star in a different location after hundreds of years. To deal with this, my nation is forced to use FTL Jump Engines, requiring multiple rest points for the ships. They also are not that accurate as to where they end up, but they get the job done.
I don't use Earth's calendar at all. The one I use a separate timeline that currently has it at the year 3574, and this increases as the NS years increase. It is the time since, the people in my nation estimate, the empires of Sarkaraset and Sarkaraseta destroyed each other, as what is now DemonLordEnigma was once a shared fringe-world colony of the two nations. The fact there are two of them may also explain the conflicting maps.
Now, how does my space travel to other planets work? The Christopher Columbus Method. Point in the general direction you think is correct, cross your fingers, and go for it. Once the location is gotten correct the first time, it's not difficult to get close to it or hit it the following times.
That out of the way, the planet I refer to of Terrator is one discovered by my nation, outside charted space, that my nation is currently thinking about colonizing. As a world, it's not even close to the best find, but it's pretty good when you have no idea where you are.
Now, as for how I purchased the ships and tech I have: Primitive ships designed desperately, not talked about due to how horrible they were.
