Extra Options for Route Planning

[Rikk]

I would love to see some extra options for route planning.

Specifically...

1. Check box for 'Prefer stars which can be scooped'. I say prefer, that is not always possible, but often there are stars very close to one that cannot be scooped which can.

2. Ability to set a preferred jump range. We currently have fastest and most economical which are opposite ends to the spectrum. There is a graph which allows the max range to be set based on your cargo - it would be great if that graph just allowed a max range to be set period. Then the fastest option would use the max range specified, giving us commanders some choices with our route planning.

Thoughts?

I would also like to be able to set the waystations on the route to a final destination.

That's a good one too!

Systems to avoid might be good as well, though I'm not sure if there is really an application for it.

i stopped jumping as far as possible for a brief period to just check all the likely candidates for earthlikes in the area.

i would love to be able to queue up a custom route - go to point a, then b, then c - selecting each in turn. that way i can hit specific systems in a specific order without having to return to the map every time.
