Number of jump removed???
- Thread starter CMDR X
- Start date
It's still there. Its across the top of the Nav screen now. It should show current system -> x jumps to destination
And it took me a while to see it too haha
Appreciate the info CMDRs but it's half baked, as usual.
This game is always two steps forwards three steps back.
I just can't fathom what devs think sometimes.
I'm going to bed.
Please Fdev, put the number of jumps remaining on the HUD so we don't have to
look at the Nav panel every 2 minutes. I could care less what my next waypoints are
in a 22 jump trip. And if I lock a destination, in Nav, then automatically plot it because
that is where I obviously would like to go to.
Thank you.

Why do you need to look at a jump count every 2 jumps?
The number of jumps used to be in the nav panel.
The number of jumps is still in the nav panel.
Seriously, what is the problem?
That way lies space madness! I'm currently making my way out to WP11 on DW2. 246 jumps to go. I don't want to see that thing constantly counting down. I like it on the nav panel, although it could be bigger.
That is the problem. I want to see it on the HUD at all times.
The same way I see my speed, my fuel and shields and etc.
Not cluttered behind new, meaningless information and only when plotted.
Well to each his own.
A slightly customizable interface is long overdue.
They only made the jump counter worse than it already was.
Dare I complain?

Sure man, complain away! I don't begrudge you your complaints, hell I have heaps when it comes to Elite. Everyone wants the game to improve, which is why we make these posts. I love the idea of a customisable interface. Also, as mentioned above, I wish the count was larger. But I love the count where it is, I turn my head slightly to the left and can see it. Dare I post my opinion also?
I guess I'm just pointing out that for most of these 'requests' there's someone who doesn't want exactly that thing the person is requesting. Hard for the devs to know whether to go left or right, which I guess is why they brought in the upvote thinger.
Agreed. May the best idea win. Forgot that VR users can just look around to see things us mortals have to push a bunch of buttons for, lol.
Well, let's start a customisable Hud campain. See how good that upvote thing works.
Err it was always shown on nav panel. They just moved it a bit..
And its one button to press. ONE. Not 'a bunch of buttons' as you claim.
As noted above, just FD's habit of making useful stuff hard to find, and useless stuff and excessive button pushing a "feature".
I kinda wish they woud make the ADS scan graph visible on the hud, without having to stop the ship and go into FSS mode... Just to look at it, mind you, ectually scanning planets would still require going into FSS mode.

So, rather than ‘clutter’ up an occasional display with data you only need occasionally (which is where it’s always been), let’s clutter up the primary display with data you only need occasionally instead.
Have I got that right?
Put it in the Suggestions forum.
I’m sure FDev will give it the priority it deserves.
I like the change. Easy to see your next and final jump destination and how many jumps left to go.
As a jump takes 50 seconds to a minute on average, unless FSSing, the difference is negligible.
For the record I don’t mind the new location too much but I agree the font is just too small and the brighter background of the arrow doesn’t help.
