Returning player after some time away, watched a video by ObsidianAnt and decided to come try things out again and so far got to say there have been some nice improvement.
Interstellar Factors.
Now this is a nice feature, I remember how much of a pain it was just dealing with simple fines before, and once having gotten used to how this new feature works I find it's a nice improvement and really appreciate these changes.
No more trying to get my self killed by an authority npc or another player just to be rid of a bounty from a "2OO CR FINE".
That was such a huge frustration and could and usually did put whatever you where doing before this on hold for several hours if not even days.
Looking forward to even more improvement to how crime and punishment works.
Exploration.
Have to say really enjoying things with the new exploration. I like the new system with the FSS scanner, honking to illuminate the system bodies and then using the FSS scanner to distinguish what those various bodies are just adds to the game play.
Now being able to see all the system bodies with the initial scan and decide quickly what you are going to map and what you will pass by.
And planetary mapping is a nice improvement over the old "Discovery Scanner", although I think I would like another 2 probes by default from the ship, 5 instead of the 3 we now have. All in all some nice improvement here.
Planetary Prospecting.
These new prospecting sight are great, just now starting to utilize them and feels so much better then just driving around and randomly finding things. Still much to learn here but so far I have been to a few of these just out side the bubble and even some inside the bubble and gathering even in these just feels much smother and quicker.
Presently on my way to a system a bit further that I found out from some google searches and should have some nice needle shards for some rares.
It just feels like its been more enjoyable and feels more lucrative while doing these things and flying from one sight to another helps to break up the monotony of driving a bit some what to.
The new orrery maps are awesome, still needs some improvement (ASAP-some memory so we can switch between the map and orrery and it will maintain its last position, zoom level and view angles), but still a very nice feature as is.
All in all just wanted to say to the Dev's good job, really like these changes, they feel like improvement to the game and look forward to seeing where you with this in the next major update.
And while that is still a little while off yet, maybe some nice quality of life improvement between now and then would be some thing to look forward to while we wait.
Probably some more things I could mention here but can't think of any more at the moment, so I'll just end this here by saying once again thanks for all the work you you have put into doing this, very nice job.
