Improve GPS system

I am trying to collect ideas from other post, for an ordinate discussion.


I read a lot of people with problems with their GPS management, I think the principal problems/suggestion are the next.


1) Multi select GPS in the menu

  1. Classical functions with SHIFT + click or CTRL + click for batch operations

2) Folder or Group

  1. Group multiples GPS for batch operations and order

3) Colors

  1. By groups and/or GPS points

4) GPS Faction share

  1. A separated GPS List with faction, only promoted users can add by example. All see if they want.
  2. Share GPS easy with friend. A button “share with faction”.

5) GPS Show/Hide based in distance

  1. Ex: hide > 100km

6) View GPS distance from menu

  1. In the GPS list, a column with actual distance.

7) Sort by distance

  1. Can sort by distance column (Not default ?)

8) Symbols (Groups or GPS Point)

  1. Can put symbols in the mark, ORE, DANGER, BASE, etc

9) Batch import/export

  1. Easier way to import and export a lot of GPS



Personal opinion

I use GPS a lot because without this, the game is impossible.

I use a system for ores like:


M for Moon

M01 – Gold
M02 – Cobalt
M03 – Magnesium

A for Asteroid

A01 – Gold 1
A01 – Colbalt 1
A01 – Gold 2
A02 – Iron 1

E for Earth

E01 – Iron
E02 – Nickel

And of course, to mark things

Base
Crashed ship 1
Unpowered ship
1) With current options, this is almost pointless. But for hide from hud or delete, is very useful.

2) I think this is very important, I am in Earth I don’t want see Moon ore, click folder [Moon Ores] and hide.

3) I see this almost pointless but if there is useful, ores I one color, base in other etc. But actually, can be messy with natural colors of the games, enemies red, antennas green, ores brown, etc.

4) For me, it’s a must do. I play withs friends in a private server and it’s a mess share the GPS of the ores. (Hey! I found 20 spots with minerals let me send by chat. Oh wait I already found 3 of them. Which?)

5) Same as 2, but automatic.

6) Only useful if I filter them first, (Search Gold, ¿which is closer? )

7) Same as 6.

8) Useful but not too much.

9) Useful if previous points are not solved.
