I might have a huge fuel tank for repeated neutron boosts. But I might be in an area of space where regular stars are the only option, and I'll be scooping from most of them. If I had a (say) 32t fuel tank, I could set my fuel mass to (say) 8t and therefore get the benefit of the route plotter using more of my ship's max jump range.
Add a Galaxy Map Fuel Mass slider (or let us move the Cargo slider to the left)

I fitted a small cargo module on both of my exploration ships simply so I had the option to slide the cargo slider up. I'd kill for the ability to also set "max fuel" for when I want to go the opposite direction and maximize jump range.
I'm not even really an "explorer", it's just something I do once in a while, and this suggestion would please even me.

I like this idea. Would be good to play about with values.
While we're there, how about a fuel dump option like there is for cargo? AFAIK, the only way to get rid of fuel atm is to have a plasma slug rail gun.

Fuel transfer limpets work as well
