Well the part he left out , is that he ' s from a religion that makes cannibalism a sin that ' s only forgiven through suicide . <| sep |> My fleet mates were in a deadspace pocket , which is an area of space you can ' t directly warp to . You have to use the acceleration gate to get there , as I should have done right away . So the weird thing about deadspace is , if you try to warp to a fleet member who is in a deadspace pocket , you will always end up at the acceleration gate leading to said pocket . That was happening to me and I didn ' t understand , as I didn ' t know about the peculiarities of deadspace . To be complete in my answer , it should be noted that you can scan ships in deadspace pockets down using combat probes . If you manage to do that , you can warp directly to the ship you scanned down . This means deadspace is not safe from pirates !
