Organise HUD by choosing what signals appear.

Like gps markers there needs to be a way to choose what antennas to show on your HUD without turning them all off with the H key.

The current problem lies is that to get them off your hud you must turn off the antenna but that leads to losing access to your ship.

If there was a way to choose what's on your HUD it can declutter the HUD and improve visibility.

Examples of why you would use this;


.Say you have a large base with many ships or drones, you are at your base and know where it is but there are 15+ signals all over your screen. You hate having the signals everywhere and just want one but without losing access to your base via antenna.


.Satellites and relay towers- these are great for flying drones and accessing places along great distances but you don't need to really know where they are at all times and turning off the antenna simply isn't an option as they are often 50+ km away to turn back on. This means you can access places via the terminal but not have it on your HUD


.and finally a way to filter enemy or neutral antennas. With the new economy update there are going to be lots of new cargo ships and trading stations. Because they are not owned by you there antennas cannot be turned off without turning all of your own off. A way to turn off all enemy or neutral signals can again help the problems of overwhelming signals.


Of course by turning off your selected signals on the HUD it will not turn it off for enemies or other players


Overall i think a simple feature like this can help with controlling the bombardment of signals around space and will be a nice quality of life improvement.


Thanks for reading though and have a think about it :)
