Galaxy Map incorporation on the CG mission board

[Faraoh]

Hey Frontier,

My suggestion to improve the mission board for the CG is to allow us to check directly the Galaxy Map so we can see immediately the distance we have to make in the CG from our current location. Instead we have to close the mission board and open the galaxy map and only then decide if we want to participate or not.

Thanks

In addition, there needs to be some sort of integration with the system map or simply provide the distance from the main star in the system to the mission destination. It should be easier to avoid missions which take more than 20 minutes of supercruising to get to the destination.

My rig's slow but I can pull up the galmap, sysmap, plot a course and exit the galmap within 20 seconds. After I exit the galmap it drops me back on the mission board. I don't seem to be having the same problem.

I think it is a QoL feature to require fewer clicks.

If FD can make it happen, I'm all for it.

The GalMap takes me out of the pilot's chair and out of the game.

Anything FD can do to bring that back to the NavPanel, the Mission Boards, etc. is a bonus and would be appreciated by many. Maybe not all...

Exactly my point... why take 20 seconds more if they can improve it??
Plus they already have that feature on the normal mission board, where u can open the Galmap before accepting any mission....

It's not a problem...it's an improvement....It would make your action planning simpler by deciding immediately if u want to do it or not....

That's also a pretty good improvement...sometimes we go to a certain system expecting to be quick about it and booom 400K Ls distance...[where is it]

I think we should be able to jump to the star we want (only stars, not bodys or stations)

makes it a little easyer to get to systems that have stars almost a HJ apart
