Out of fuel without fuel scoop, stations, beacon?

So i forgot to refuel at the previous star system and cannot get to the next or hyper fly back to the previous. I do not have a distress beacon or a fuel scoop, do i have any options left besides the big red button that is hooked up to all the C4 behind my seat?

Call the Fuel Rats!

The Fuel Rats are a group of players that will race to bring you fuel. From what I've heard, it's not uncommon for a few of them to all try to converge on your location as fast as possible (competing to get credit for your rescue). They've been known to go to extraordinary lengths to help out stranded players, with a recent 3600 light year 6+ fuel rat relay rescue recently described in GalNet News.

You can call for them via the IRC on their website, via /r/FuelRats, or by posting on their thread on the official game forum.

Here's Fuel Rats' current instructions for those waiting to be rescued:

There's a couple other smaller groups that do the same thing, but Fuel Rats is the biggest, best known, etc.

If you'd rather, you can get a friend to help you out instead. (The one time I got stranded, it was somebody in the group I was playing with that came to my rescue).

Your friend would need to equip a ship with a Fuel Transferer Limpet Controller, Cargo Racks, and a supply of Fuel Transferer Limpets/Drones (under reload/munitions after buying the controller). Your friend will probably want to equip a Fuel Scoop and additional Fuel Tanks.

"Fuel Limpets" are a drone stored in the cargo hold and controlled by the Limpet Controller. They can transfer 1 ton of fuel, (and then self-destruct) from the ship with the controller to another ship. A higher class (larger size) controller can handle more limpets at once, and increasing either class or rating increases the range at which they'll operate.

Procedure is something like this:

1. Get a safe distance away from the star and any other hazards, and drop out of supercruise.
2. Shut down absolutely everything except life support to maximize how long you can run on your existing fuel.
3. Take note of the exact name of the system you're in, and the nearest astronomical bodies (planets, rings, etc). If you're in a system with a complicated name, look for the nearest system with a single-word name, and note that, too.
4. Exit to the main menu to further avoid using fuel. (Not needed if you definitely have enough fuel to last until they get there)
5. If you're not already in game friends, add each other to your friends list.
6. Communicate your location to your friend (via the game communications reachable from the main menu, or entirely outside of the game).
7. Once your friend is getting near your system, start the game up again, and "wing up". Go to the communications menu (upper panel). One of you needs to invite the other to the wing, and the other needs to accept. It works best if the person being rescued forms the wing.
8. Set a "Wing Beacon" so that your friend can find you in the system. For best results, do this before your friend jumps into the system. (your friend will want to nav lock you)
9. Wait for your friend to drop into normal space next to you.
10. Power on your cargo hatch and maybe also sensors and a few other things.
11. As an added safety measure: power shields on and deploy your landing gear. This disables boost and helps make sure you don't damage each other.
12. Your friend uses the limpet controller to send fuel drones to you.
13. Optional: later on you thank your friend with 20 tons of palladium in the game, or a real life beer. :)

Before the 1.3 release on 2015-06-05, you would be dead and might as well self-destruct.

First find the nearest place with a station you can refuel. The route plotted will not plot the nearest but most efficient. That may reduce range enough so you can jump. If not then jettision cargo as that reduces mass and may also let you get to a refuelling point. Otherwise you are done!
