Galaxy Map QoL

[NullSector]

Currently the map is fairly ok to navigate and read, however it could be a lot better.

 

In my current game I have a mod or two to include some quality of life changes to the star map, however it doesn't do everything I would like.

- First and foremost is the green/yellow sector dots that radiate from the currently controlled ship. It would be extremely nice to be able to have the option to make them into solid dots that don't radiate out, instead are constantly in the sector squares.

- Secondly, with those dots, it would also be amazing to be able to see what any of your ships see on the map. Its really annoying to have to switch to a iron/titanium mining ship out in the far sectors just to see new possible sectors to mine in.

- Third is simple map marking, currently there is tagging and commenting on a sector, however an expansion of this system would be amazing. Such as marking in different colors, or putting icons on the squares.

 

Thanks for the read, and hopefully ya'll take these changes into consideration! :)

I actually like the pulsing of the dots on the map. Like a radar scanning the sectors around it. But I 100% agree that you should be able to see all of the sectors your ships see, even if you are not in the ship. I mean, you are able to give commands to your ships anywhere in the galaxy. There is no reason you can't share radar information.

• Pulsating green/yellow dots - I actually like this effect, too, though I would ask that maybe the dots don't disappear completely.
  
• Seeing the green/yellow dots from the other ship's perspectives - Yes, please!
  
• Map marking - Yes, some expanded capabilities here would be nice. :)
