- bug galaxy map
this ui and stelar map is pure madness.
there is a thing said in tech things:
if something works fine, DONT touch it.
the ui worked fine, the stellar map could be better, yes, but worked fine. now it is a pain in the a..s...s, to navigate between system map, stellar map. you have to click to see who discovered or mapped something.
Also, why so dark??? stars now are a joke compared with horizons. it was fun and beautiful, to have screenshots from stars. now they seem like a ball of meat inside my barbacue.
plannets in eds are being shown, a lot of brilliant, like suns.... colours have changed in eds.
jesus, im very upset with this "Odyssey".
Yes it is an Odyssey to explore...

The galaxy ui map is incomprehensible and they over simplified the buttons and made them tiny! Like... what do any of these things do??? What can I do??? What's missing?!?!?!?
It's overwhelming even for a veteran of the game and I hate how I don't have a close button either. When I want to close the galaxy map I don't want to hit back a million times.

Yikes! I’m 27kly from Sol and totally reliant on the neutron highway to get back in any sensible timescale 
Ok, I take back what I said about the galmap being useable.
I've just tried to plot a route to my home station.
Horizon:
Open map
Open bookmark
Select station and 'plot' from dropdown menu
Close map
Odyssey:
Open map
Open bookmarks
Open Manage Bookmarks <- Why?
Open Stations
Select target station
Select 'plot route'
Close target station
Close stations
Close bookmarks
Finally, close galmap
Scream!
Thing is, you do all that and it only takes you to the System, not the Station / Fleet Carrier / Planet / Surface Installation / POI you actually bookmarked. I hope this is an interface bug and the Bookmark Data other than system hasn't been lost. That'd be a real pain.
Scoob.
Who decided that the galaxy map wasn't orange enough and needed more orange? Every single POI marker and bookmark is now orange. No more at-a-glace differentiating between bookmarks, Engineer pins, parked ships and CG systems. Everything is the same colour, and you have to peer at each pin closely to figure out which type it is.
Because 21:9 is the boss!Why would you be using a smartphone with an aspect ratio beyond 16:9 though?
Not only is it awful to navigate the new UI, when I go into a system map and plot a route to a station %50 of the time it forgets the station and I have to re-target when I get there anyway. Frontier, bring back the map that actually worked, please..!
LoL
really! All the bookmarks are the same colour! 
'Finesse' isn't in FDev's vocabulary is it!

all being the same color is an annoyance, a minor one tho.
The extra clicks and the too spread bars, the too many buttons, the seemingly lack and/or hidden information is more annoying
the jumps lines that cannot be disabled - even more
But we cant use neutron boost? not even sure where to put this
Damn, what a mentally challenged design decision!

The map UI in Horizons was pretty bad, so it's quite the feat to have gone backwards in every way for Odyssey.
My biggest issue with galaxy map is, that you cannot plot route to "object" which you find when using fast search. It is pure ** (was censored) that I need to use further menus from the right side to plot route. The same with bookmarks. I also noticed that galaxy map filters do not reflects changing state of availability for some services like Interstellar factor. You need to manually check via details of station services whether is IF really available. Sadly state of galaxy/system maps is the same like rest of Odyssey ... at best "Beta", unfinished and unpolished.

In the Box labelled 'Broken Toys'....
Seems that's unlikely, after a glitchy game lhs 317 I went to dock and the station blew me up just for requesting to dock. Wasn't wanted, didn't fire my guns. I think I shall be playing Warframe for a while as Frontier really want to mess this game up.
You can disable them in the settings part now. New feature. Just FYI.
Which setting is used to disable the jump lines , cause i cant seem to be able to find it?
