Sector view and Colony List - Mineral status

Post by jawstheshark »

Would love to see some sort of indicator on the mineral richness of a planet in the sector view and in the colony list.

It would help when making decisions,and remove the added step of going into the planet view.

I know real-estate for presenting info can be hard to arrange, so maybe just an icon that has different appearance based on how rich the planet it is?

.
Mineral richness is shown on the planet list (under resources) but you mean on the colonies (F9) ?

Yes, this a big issue with the lists especially with some of the other languages we support and some players still using 5:4 (1280x1024) monitors.

The Sector view box on the right side of the screen that lists the star/planets of the selected sector


Colony list would be cool too, but the sector view is where it would be the most helpful
