I got a passenger mission, where the destination is more than 5,000 light-years away. I'm trying to plot a course to the destination, in the Galaxy Map, but I'm getting an error saying "maximum distance exceeded." How do I get to my destination?

Hyperspace jumps can only be plotted out to 1,000 light-years, so you'll need to find a star that's just under 1,000 light years away from your current location. Once you reach that destination, or a bit before then, plot your next 1,000 light-year segment, until you get there.
As of v2.4, Galaxy Map route plotting can now plot routes up to 20,000 lightyears.
v2.4 was released on September 26, 2017 for all platforms.
