Auto safe orbit around suns toggles on when fuel scooping

[FatzDomingo]

For immersion I play without orbit lines. Apart from that its less for the RIFT to render! Anyways, with orbit lines off you don't get the safe distance circle around a sun. I used that as the convenient route to follow just outside when skimming fuel. Could we get the "safe orbit" line toggling ON when fuel scooping, even if all other lines are off.

ergo- scoop activates/line appears .......... scooping finished/line deactivates

I would like to see that too. [up]

Yes please. Option to turn ON drop lines but leave OFF orbit lines.

(I fly with orbit lines OFF because they ruin the view.)

I don't think it needed. If you monitor your heat level and fuel intake you can pick up fuel just fine. Like my ship Max fuel schoop level is 800 /s. But I avg at 500 /s to keep the heat down.

I'm not against that suggestion (as long as the auto toggle is optional), but I think it's unnecessary. Just map the orbit line toggle to any more or less inconvenient key (combo), then hit that key when you need it. While you're scooping (ok, while I am scooping ) you won't see or at least perceive the planetary orbit lines anyway.

Providing you can turn the feature off.

I've sort of got used to putting the suns 'glare' at a specific point on my cockpit for the various ships but yes either the orbit lines or maybe a whole new funky graphic for fuel scooping when it's activated.
