(Feature idea) 3D local map
What SE1 in my opinion really lacked is some sort of map to better navigate and plan out combat situations.
While GPS markers helped in navigating to single points, trying to do any advanced combat tactics/strategies without a map is extremely hard.
A simple incorporation of some 3D map to SE would be to make a spherical map with point (0,0,0) at coordinates of player/map block/ship and radius of few kilometers. Said map should involve GPS coordinates, Beacons/antennas and terrain within the map sphere.
There is a game called NEBULOUS_Fleet_Command which is basically space combat simulator (or at least very close to it) and combat in SE does not really differ from one in said game, so having similar tools in SE2 as in nebulous would be great QoL. https://store.steampowered.com/app/887570/NEBULOUS_Fleet_Command/
