Some extra usability.

Some below are just some usability updates.

1. Please add star class shown just near it's name left side on cockpit. I.e. when i watch right - i see fuel left, then i need to do clicks/scrolls and find on galaxy map what is the next point ...so why can't I see it right on screen and take decision - do I follow route yet or going refuel ...
2. Galaxy map ...well, many usabilitu question there too, but can deal with most except ...bookmarks! I edit bookmarks and put custom text there to recognize it fast like "GUARD: here some mats". Now ...NO WAY to see that text on map itself, only click EACH mark in list and see if map scrolled to what I want ... so, can tool tip for bookmark on map have user's text as well please?
3. Do something with asteroids logs ... sometimes i can scan 5-7 planets already and it still spams me by asteroids, so I must wait 1 min to just read what this planet is ... can it be disabled at all "new discovery of asteroid belt" somewhere in settings.
4. Since many comments below, ppl pursue me (1) is not needed ...well, then maybe next feature - can we scroll up right log? So read what was there last 10 minutes let's say ...not just fast flashing messages.

1. Star class is shown when you engage FSD. When I am running low on fuel I often blip the FSD while still scooping to see if I should stay longer.

yes, i said "usability" this means simple convenient things which dont change game play but allow to fill more comfort.
Also try your trick with 30+ close new astreroid fields ... u have to wait MINUTES until all those messages about new discovery will stop and u can read log finally.

We have a had a great deal of improved functionality for avoiding running out of fuel, it will tell you on screen if you are at your last scoopable star in your current route.

I updated all post above. I think about this feature when getting too many asteroids or have hangover ...so "deep in my thoughts" and missing that fast scrolling log. I would like to have "star name (M class)" right on screen - nothing special.

The next star type should be displayed in my opinion before you blip it, it would save time and hassle especially for new players. I think a lot of people on here forget to look at things from that perspective.
