    I recently took a lot of damage going too close to a star. I lost all my turrets. Normally i do not go near stars, but i was attacking pirate stations on the map, and it appears that one spawned too close to a star, or i stupidly wandered too close to the star.

    As such, it would be useful all around to have a navigation option that shows the stars radiation fields, so that way we can avoid those sectors all together.

    Agreed. Let's hit thirty agree ratings!

    In all seriousness, though; This and heat shielding have been urgently needed ever since suns got more dangerous.

    at least a warning or something. Like "hey you are 3 sectors away from horrible burning death" or turn these sectors red on the star map.

    Personally I just want to see stations not spawn within the burn radius. :\

    For the love of all that's awesome ... cant agree more. #AgreeWithAllTheThings

    They made stars more dangerous, said more was coming to go with the more dangerous to counter/mitigate... and moved on to the HUGE faction update work... leaving no further comment on their plans to "fix" star damage... despite being SUPER vocal about all their plans for the faction updates. I'm very very happy about how they are in general, handling community engagement, yet kinda disappointed in how they are handling this star damage.

    I guess I'm just a little put off by how Shine handled the star damage changes.

    Its especially annoying since different size stars, color stars, and binary stars all have different heat ranges. Between those three variables about the only way to know if you're going to be fried is to fly in and find out.

    Not exactly a great system, that.

    I thought some sort of indicator was already planned. I also already know about this suggestion. I cannot simply wish it upon Schema though.

    It would be good to know if the indicator is definitely planned. And if it is planned and on a development schedule/timeline... just what is in front of it.
