Title: System view: request for highlights on 'Where's my stuff'
Post by: JimGalaxy on July 14, 2015, 06:25:23 PM
When I started a few months ago, I kept detailed spreadsheets of each first-ring system and planet's deposits. As I progress in the game, and the explored Universe gets bigger, I've discovered ... 'ain't nobody got time for that' lol.

I *love* the feature on the Star Maps, that shows highlighted rings in green, where you have a presence in that system. This request is to implement a similar 'Where's my stuff?' visual *in the System view* ... to avoid having to keep drilling down to the details and finding the green #'s.

Green rings around the pretty planet pictures probably wouldn't work :P ... the best way to do that in the System view might be to modify the right-side listing of planets / moons; simply change the color scheme so that anywhere you have a presence, it shows a bright green, and the rest are a dimmer color (like gray). Would save a TON of time navigating in-system.

Doesn't sound too difficult, but one never knows ...

click on the star image while in system view and it will provide the information you are searching for in a new window.

I'm well aware you can drill down like that. My point is that there's no reason we should have to, or to keep going between those screens.
