In-depth description
The Stellaris command path is primarily used to find the shortest route or path between two star systems in the game. Given the vast scale of the Stellaris galaxy, it's a convenient tool to navigate through space.
By typing path followed by the ID of the origin star and the destination star, it will show you the most efficient way to get to your destination.
This command is useful when you want to calculate the quickest route for your fleet to reach a destination. It also helps to identify which hyperlane connections you need to secure and protect, and could potentially show where your enemies are likely to attack or travel through.
In a strategic sense, knowing the quickest paths allows you to deploy fleets more effectively, protect your borders efficiently, or plan invasions with more precision. The path command is useful in any situation where optimizing your empire's movements is important.
