Where do you think any FTL travel happened? The red lines are all FTL
communication. The white and blue frames are moving with respect to
each other at 0.4 c. There's no FTL travel at all. It would be possible
to explain the point using purely FTL travel rather than FTL
communication, but I prefer not to because there are lots of dynamic
problems then too!

You're welcome. I think I'll draw diagrams to show time dilation,
distance contraction, the "twins paradox" and stuff like that as soon
as I get time - it's fun!
