Suggestion for the Galaxy Map and Menu

[XCaliber]

Hi,

In the Galaxy Map we currently have a large Menu on the left that blocks visibility of the Galaxy Map as a Whole. I would like to suggest that a button be added to the upper left corner of this menu that allows the player to Maximize or Minimize (Expand or Collapse) this Menu so the player can view the Map Full Screen.

Also in regards to the Galaxy Map; Players have stored ships all over the Galaxy. I Suggest that under the "Options Tab" on the Galaxy Map Menu the player has access to a drop down list of Locations of our ships that are stored or at least a way to easily find one of their stored ships. This will enable the player to Head to one of these locations in their New Sidewinder after they explode or Crash their ship.

Another option for the above is to Give the player the option to start over in one of their stored ships thus simplifying the process all together.

Many thanks for such a wonderful game !

Let's keep improving it to its best potential !

I'm pretty sure that systems with stored ships have an icon next to them. Also, you can go to any shipyard and see a list of all your stored ships and their locations.

Yes ... I know this... My Suggestions was to make it easier for the player. Btw.. you didn't mention anything about the minimize button...

We should be able to move the menu as well. When running a multiscreen setup the menus are typically split or partially obscured in the bezel. FD is supposedly working on this.

A menu selection for your stored ships would be a good addition as well as the ability to fully minimize the menus.

Like the ideas! I would find these handy too.

Along with player ship searches, I would also like to filter things like what systems I have visited/explored, what systems I have traded the most in, where I have lost ships etc

Easier to post this in the Dangerous Suggestions sub-forum where features like this can be discussed, could be a better chance of a Dev seeing it.
