The SAG, or System Access Gate, is a network of permanent hyperspace rips, allowing those whose ships are not equipped with hyperdrives or equipped with only short-range hyperdrives to easily travel between systems. However, their use comes at the price of 80 tape per entry, and they are heavily guarded to ensure no cheapskates try to slip by.

Each SAG unit is a bronze-colored ring, 50 yards in diameter, with eight small, rotating engine pods positioned on its outer rim to keep its position in space.

Although hyperdrives can exit several hundred miles off of your set coordinates, this is because they're kind of like Doom. You hit a wall and keep pressing spacebar and grunting until you find the secret door and it lets you through. With the SAG, the rip in space is always open and in the same place.

Unfortunately, the SAG is a new system, and currently only has units in the Charlu, Mircor, and Aans systems.
