Filter Habitable Planets on Minimap

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hey Forumusers and Stardock

 

I have been testing Galciv III for a bit. It looks really great so far, very promising.

One thing I would like to feedback on is that it felt a little disorientating after a while when the map was becoming larger and larger.

I have some troubles finding my planets and uncolonized habitable planets.

If there was a option on the minimap to filter to see only habitable planets I think that would be very nice.

 

Going to test the game some more, happy testing everybody :)

That would be a nice option for those of us that love the HUGE maps.

If you zoom out more you will see the map changing to show the strategic interface (is that it's name?). The planets will change to show their habitability and will show your icon as well. I find that very useful to locate my planets. Then you just zoom back in where you want.

I usually play the entire game in the strategic interface and still have part of this problem. I think planet names should be displayed at that view.

Even on small maps - a great idea!
