Route plotting for Galaxy Map

Unity Engine

I have a galaxy of stars, a group of spheres, and I’m trying a make a route plotting method to plot a route from one system to another.

I’m thinking something like:

GameObject currentSystem;
GameObject targetSystem;
List<GameObjects> Waypoints;

float maxPlotDistance;
float jumpDistance;

void PlotRoute()
{
  var totalStraightLineDistance = Vector3.Distance(currentSystem, tagetSystem);
 
  if (totalStraightLineDistance < maxPlotDistance)
  {
    // get all stars around currentStar with jumpDistance Raidus, OverlapSphere??

    // find star out of that group that is closest to target

    // add to waypoints and repeat until reach target star
  }
  else { "Target To far to plot" }
}

Is this the way I should do this? Any help is appreciated.
