Tiered HUD

[Lone_Puppy]

Hi Guys,

sorry if I'm repeating an idea/feature somebody has already presented or requested.

I find with the use of the new rail system, the HUD is much more busy and full of entity ID's.

Ideally, a solution here would be to tier the HUD/entity display.
- Tier 1 - Main Entity only (Default)
- Tier 2 - include any docked entities to main structure
- Tier 3 - include any docked entities to Tier 2
- Tier 4 - main structure and all docked entities
- Adding a HUD key would likely be needed for this or key+mouse combo. Makes switching through tiers easier.

Would this be possible in a future update?

I hope this makes sense.

As far as I understand your post that is already possible.
Hit N and press 'Set navigation filter' there you can toggle if you want to have turrets, docked entities, asteroid and so on on your HUD

Awesome!
Thanks Captain Tankman.
It would be nice to be able to cycle through these quicker than opening navigation. Then you could target specific docked structures on the fly.

Yeah... Personally, I want to be able to see where turrets and shuttles are docked, but not every single rail component on a ship... +1 to this idea.
