you know when a planet is being attacked, and it's not even in the system your in, say your in Sol, and some planet in cygnus is being attacked, or invaded, why not have the system name before the planet name, something so newbies in particular ain't wondering where to go. I have been gone six months almost maybe more.. and kept looking at my map screen wondering where the heck the planet was that was being attacked...
this way the players only need to keep in mind the system of which they are in, instead of trying to memorize10-20 planets in 20-30 some odd systems..
I feel it's a good idea, and I hope anyone who see's this hopes so too..
thnx

next time u see a "so and so planet being attacked"
press f2 and zoom all the way out. a red circle will b around the affected system. click it zoom in, click the planet once u can see it, and press c for some intelligence work.

another thing u can do is hit your target button and select last distress.
it will bring up the attacked planet for you

I would point out that this suggestion would make it so that enemy players would then spawn in the system before you get within 500 gu instead of before 200 gu then as they donthave to think what system to change their spawn point to.

I didn't say it wouldn't have it it's drawbacks, but atleast it was a worthwhile idea...

I suggested this a long time ago. Good idea.
* Earth (Sol) is being attacked!
Something like that.
