Title: Enhancements & Patches #7
Post by: SirEmi on November 06, 2014, 05:11:58 PM
+ Star maps: Added text navigation and scan details table on the right of the map screen.
    -> Owned ships detected in the search and view area of the map are displayed on the right. Hovering over it shows the ship position on the map (if zoom<=60%)
    -> in 100% zoom, stars are also displayed in a table on the right of the map
    -> if a ship is at a star, it's possible to view information on it, by hovering on the left of the star or on the scan details table on the right
    -> if searching for owned assets, the owned ships table on the right is also filtering depending on search
    -> If "Plot new course" button is pressed, clicking on an owned ship on the right will plot an LR course to it. Otherwise, clicking a ship will activate it.

+ System view has been improved. Hovering over planets or the sun will highlight the object.
    -> A scan details table on the right of the system map shows the detected planets and distance from the ship.
    -> Hovering over the planets list on the right shows it's location on the system map.
    -> Clicking on the Sun / Star in the system image or on the star name in the top of the table on the right will access the scan data from the star maps computer.
    -> Clicking on a planet on the right table will plot a course to it. Still need to click the "Engage" button to set, but there will be an "Auto-engage" option for interplanetary / system view drives soon.

This appearing on the right poop is annoying on the star map.  Can't even see the list without scrolling over to the left.

I got a great monitor. lol. I got it set on the largest resolution I can have. 1440x900.  The issue I think comes from the star charts huge size as it is.

Thanks for another great update, Sir Emi. This game is so much easier to play with these last few updates.

I guess no one will ever experience my adversity of juggling 46 ships using the old GUI. Moving and upgrading ship modules were so time consuming.  Goodbye, old times.  hi
