Mentioned this in another post but thought id see how well the idea floats....

Supercurise - dunno about the rest of you, if you haulin' ass across a large system like LHS 3447 (or whatever the starter one is) it takes an age to get across it, i end up reading or checking emails on my pad (whist still sitting at my PC) so many times have i looked up and seen that ive overshot my destination or left my "braking" too late to drop out of SC,

so i was thinking an audio chime to let you know that you are close to the destination and another for when you hit the blue to drop out of SC or something like that,

What you think?

Good suggestion, and this would definitely help. I can't help thinking that a game mechanic that leads to players taking their hands off the controls and doing something else while they wait for some task to complete (for me it's often watching Flight Assist Off videos and daydreaming about the fun I could be having) is somewhat broken in the first place, though.

Especially when it's arbitrary. You don't have to "break immersion" or "lose a sense of scale" to just increase the rate of acceleration and deceration such that the travel time is shortened.

But this rant has been done to death already. Some people buy passenger jet simulators. Doing nothing for hours at a time other than a slight rudder tweak is​ fun.
