Warning, rant incoming..
I am slowly being driven insane by the new System map. I just really don't understand why they would change it the way they have, cause I can't find a single improvement to it. The things that are killing me is:
1. The appearance. It looks messy, and whoever got the ridiculous idea of putting information boxes on both sides of the screen should go to their room and think about what they have done. Not only is it annoying to have to check both sides for info, the boxes block the view of half the map...
2. The information I want is now divided into too many tabs! Why? Why would anyone want this? It just means more button clicking,
3. No mouseover! I cannot stress enough how irrationally angry this is making me. Seriously, an example: I am out exploring and I get to a system with 30 bodies. After scanning, I want to check the planets for resources, if it's been mapped, is it terraformable, what's the gravity like on any planets I consider landing on, basic exploration stuff. Because I can't mouseover planets anymore, I have to click each one to get info. Because of the tabs, I have to open two different boxes as well. This means around 60 button clicks in a single system, just to get info.
4. Why on earth can't I target a planet with the target button? Why do I have to hold down a button instead?
Overall, it's just more time consuming and irritating and the appearance ruins my immersion.
Rant over.
Just needed to get that out of my system.
Thanks.
