Search Sector Map for 'X'

[TrixX]

After wasting countless hours trying to find an Ammunition S/M/L Factory S/M/L/XL/XXL and having little to no luck (only one I found had Ammunition S and L but no M which I needed!) for QoL reasons we really need a search function for the sector map.

 

Trying to find things at the moment is painfully hard! Makes trading and crafting quite frustrating.

 

OH and as an aside losing 40K rep for having Explosive Charges onboard (trying to craft weapons) is damn annoying. At least let me buy the dangerous goods permit!

I'd definitely like to be able to search all the sectors I've actually jumped into, no question.

 

Since the Galaxy is Randomly Generated, not sure how anything else could be done; you haven't been there so it doesn't exist yet...

 

But, if it were possible: rather than just having everything 'seeable', I'd like to see a Hints / Maps / Routes system;

 

Hints might simply be added to the bulletin board, like a travelers warning, or News item.

 

Buyable Maps?  Traveling Merchants could have random maps.

Or Faction maps; you get your standing high enough and you earn a map of that Factions territories.

 

You see a Hauler, you interact, if you're on Good or higher Faction Standing, then Hauler might mention, "We just finished a job for the X Factory / Station in X:Y , nice folks."  You're map DB updates with the info, even if you've never been there. So it slowly grows & gives some more life to game.
