How about a proximity alert?

[Agent Zirdik]

Here's an interesting idea: some sort of block that when installed, will alert nearby friendly players when hostile ships come within proximity, specifically with some sort of alarm sound.

This would greatly help with predicting pirate raids, because let's face it, the little pop-up at the top of the screen isn't very effective since most of the time it looks like the server telling me to brace myself for a lag spike. But it would also help against enemy factions. Obviously radar jamming would negate the alarm.

I believe some sort of radar module should be added no matter what but being able to set when you want to get alerted and by what would be very useful.
