Also it would be fun if the hud
states if it’s scoopable or not.
And
if there is a scoopable star in fuel range or not.
And a special flagged scenario to add the dialogue
“But you forgot to pack a fuel scoop
So it doesn’t matter anyway”
And then have all these useful messages appear after the FSD has locked in and started
To count down to your demise....

idk if people have said this, but just remember that stars of class KGBFOAM can be scooped
Would also be awesome to see that it is the last star on your journey that you can scoop before running out of fuelSimple request, add the star class under the system name, just above the horizontal line.
Having the Star Class in the Info data is suboptimal because it clears after a moment.
If you think this is a reasonable request, like it to show support.
When you click to jump, the top right panel gives a quick message telling you what star class the destination has, but sometimes you have to be alert to see it

I 100% agree with the suggestion in the OP - it's easy to glance away for a second and miss the star class in the info screen. They could swap out the current galactic sector text for star class, it'd be a lot more useful and wouldn't require reformatting the box. It makes a lot more sense for the "changing galactic sectors" to show up in the info panel, IMO, since it happens so infrequently. Yes, you can see you've got something dangerous coming up (Neutron, WD) and get a sense of star class in the Witchspace loading screen, and yes, you can check the galmap, but it sure would be a nice QoL improvement. It's annoying that it goes away in the info screen the way it currently is.
Something like:
STAR CLASS G (SCOOPABLE)
-------------------------------------------
SOL 20.54 LY
--------------------------------------------
HIGH SECURITY
CLEAN

A simpler solution would be to have the information in the info screen persist. It disappears too fast.
Depends on the info, some of it yes, some of it I'd rather not see at all... 'weapon cannot be used in this mode' ... combat/discovery mode message is a lot of unnecessary spam, no need for that to hang around any longer than it already does. It would be nice if we could have a message filter and a delay setting on that window.
From a programming perspective, you are actually incorrect. Adding this would simply be inserting a display line into the existing code and displaying the variable.
