It does seem to be better. We'll see once more players join & put some load on the servers.
Why are the stars in the Galmap so g hard to grab?

Here's the thing, though: It's a tad annoying, all the time. It's one thing to have an occasional, mildly annoying issue that *might* come up every now and again. It's an entirely different matter when the core functionality of a fundamental component of the game's interface is cumbersome and unpleasant to use. A small annoyance which happens often and cannot be avoided, is tremendously damaging to the quality of the game as a whole.
There was me, thinking it was me ! Yes, it's become a real pain to click on a star ... I have to type in it's name now to get to it, even though I can see it on the map. The same with stars marked with the bookmark (and there's another need for improvement - colored bookmarks !) ... can rarely access them on the map with a keyboard and mouse, have to go into the list at left to pick them out.
Phew ,and I thought I was doing something wrong.

This needs fixing. It was fine before 2.2
Hope this issue is resolved with today's update. Anyone having problems with SRV fire groups having to be reset with every landing?
I wonder if it's relevant what screen resolution you are using. I'm on 1440p and am definitely seeing the OP's issue.

Exactly!
Repped. Yes it was and now it isn't.
Part of it, for me, is the speed of my connection having 3 with all different speeds.
If I place the mouse cursor on a system the length of time till I "grab it" seems dependent on connection speed - the faster the quicker it goes.
Presumably as the system information is being downloaded from the server? Have not tried with the new patch yet.

Bbbbbut... PS/4 will save us all and the Thargoids are *really* our friends.
Galmap broke- low priority.

TL/DR but confirmed, after the last major update the Gal Map is utterly frustrating. Impossible to select anything unless you zoom right up to it. In previous builds the selection in the Gal Map seemed to have a bit more of a "smart filter" applied to it and made some educated... and usually correct assumptions about what you were trying to select and it was orders of magnitude easier.
Would love to see this fixed as part of the QOL updates promised in 2.4

And I just checked this morning (first time I was able to log in) and it's still not working correctly.
Well, there's always that "minor update" that follows the patch.
And of course, 2.4.

I've noticed that if I rotate the map, the star I am interested in will glow, making it selectable. However it doesn't remain selected. Just like in the system map, you have to zoom in on it else when you move your cursor to try to set a course waypoint, you're selecting something different.
I'd like to be able to move through the map like you move through Google Earth at the street level, just by moving the mouse wheel. I want to move forward without having to select a star. I have to move backward away from the star, like a crab, to see anything else.
