PSA: Features now only shows Geo/Bio signals, not others

[marx]

Although it's a niche usage case, I thought I'd still post it here. With the January update, Frontier have split off the Guardian / Thargoid / Human / Other signals from the "Features" tab of the FSS interface, and they are now shown under a smaller "Locations" entry in the planet info part instead. So despite there only being a few out there in the deep galaxy, it's now easier than ever to miss them.

Although in the default colour scheme, at least the Locations part is in orange instead of white.

Do people actually read the FSS screens? I just zoom in and out long enough to ping the body, zip around getting everything to 100% and THEN hit up the system map to see what everything is. In that sense, I honestly find the new setup kind of intrusive, since 90% of stuff just reads,"Locations; None. Features; None," and everything relevant is pushed further down the page. It even shows up on atmospheric worlds. Like, duh! Of course there's no features or locations, we can't even land on them! Seriously, why did we need to know about literal nothing?

Also, I can understand making it more obvious if a planet has bio signs since they're much rarer, but did we really need it to mention geos too, considering we already have an entry on there that does that, in the form of "Volcanism; Insert type here."

Sorry, probably should have prefaced this post with a rant disclaimer, and I get this wasn't quite the intention of the op, but this change just bugs me more than anything should and seems totally pointless.
