Is there any indication that waypoint facilities will be introduced any time soon? There addition would make route planning so much more straightforward and allow a series of selected systems to be visited in succession. Constantly planning single jumps gets very boring after a while and even selecting the most economical pathway misses out many of the systems I want to jump into.
Explorers need waypoint markers
- Thread starter ruger_shooter
- Start date
Cynical:
It's an explorer feature, so no
Enthusiastic:
WAYPOINTS!!!! Want. WAAAAAAANT!!!!!
When I read the OP I was surprised initially, as I thought we already got this feature in 2.1...
Until I realized that I am (ab)using the bookmark feature for just this
That is exactly how I navigated out of the Abyss with the Rock Rat Rescue. I worked my way along the possible route and bookmarked the important systems to aim for, so that I would not lose the route when I started to jump. You could only plot 2 or 3 at a time (if you were lucky), so I was able to plot a good long way doing this.
Sortof additionally to this request: Manual route-plotting and/or adding "via points" to a route. Sorry if this is just different terminology for the same request.
Also: Persisting your plotted route(s) across reloads. Nothing more annoying than coming back and finding your carefully-picked-out route is now gone (especially if due to a game crash).
Also: Saving (and sharing?) of routes. Build a nice tourist-route for others to follow.
