Map view improvement request

Post by hxsgame »

Each time, when you do operation which will be open the map interface, it is centered on the Player position. And need to find the target again, This bring a lot of inconvenience.

Maybe it is centered on the selected (operating) object will be better.

Targeted objects are automatically centered on the map.

I do miss my sector map key, though.

Like repatomonor said.
Honestly, I almost find it annoying: Half the time I open my map, I'm centered on a random asteroid instead of my own ship :|
But I still prefer this than the other way around.

I just have to re-think my joystick button mapping and include a "clear target" button.
Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the first opening they develop is the anus.
This means that at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Some people never develop beyond this stage.

If you use the Configure Station button from a station's info pane, ~90% of the time you'll return to the station you were looking at on the map.

If you use the right-click Plan Build context menu, ~90% of the time you'll return to wherever "you" are at.

It's irritating, and probably low on the priority list.
