Galaxy map. Star system only option.

[Tshara]

Now that the faction update is out we will have more and larger faction territories in the galaxy map.

At the moment the current map design works but with all the faction colours it’s sometimes hard to see what is going on, on a star system scale.

So I’m proposing to go for a 2 layered design in the map. Galaxy wide and star system only.

• Galaxy wide would basically be the map as it is now.

• Star system only. Only show the star system you are in. But a lot more detailed. Perhaps even the possibility to add your own markers for places of interest.

I like it.

would be nice to see asteroid clusters so you don't have the fumble blindly around

It could also be used to coordinate fleet movements, which would be cool.

I like this suggestion as well.

I believe the map will grow to be increasingly important to manage you faction when progressing into the game.

Setting up routs for fleets or designating areas to protect. This could all be done through the map instead of text based windows.

A lot more user friendly as well I believe.

The ability to direct fleet movements from within the map would also be a cool bonus
