Tracking Station Folders.

[Sokar408]

Please make this a thing. At the very least provide a way to change the order of objects. Quality of life improvement maybe, but at least I would save a bunch of time if this was a thing. Anyone else think this should be a thing?

[DMSP]

Yes, I made a mod request for something with the same idea a while back!

It would make KSP life so much easier!

Indeed. Or at least allow you to sort somehow, like allowing the newest vessels to be listed at the top. As a user of RemoteTech, my satellites quickly makes the list cumbersome.

I like this idea. I've been playing with RemoteTech lately and the list of ComSats is getting a bit long. I can't just turn off unmanned probes because I have ships using those satellites of course.

It would be nice to have the folders for the tracking station, but it would also be nice to control the folder in the map view for visibility. So I can choose not to see the orbits of those satellites as well. I have a feeling kind of change would require an overhaul to the visibility toolbar, but in map view it is currently broken anyway since you can't click the buttons, and they said they had to redo the GUI for Unity 5, so what better time?

THIS!

I have 108 ComSats but over 20 probes! I don't want the ComSats to be derbies but I don't want a clogged tracking station/map view!

Always seemed one of those big UI issues that never got the love it needs.

Give it a bump.

Agree. And allow users to apply a color to any space craft they want. Too many look-a-likes. Information mgmt 101

I'd love to be able to sort the tracking station list by

• name (alphabetically)

• time in flight

• type of vessel

• mass

• number of parts

• number of crew

• remaining fuel

[LameLefty]

I'd be happy with a button that would simply toggle your current vessel and your target (if you have one set), and turn everything else off. That would help planning "launch to rendezvous" missions manually much easier. If the same toggle existed in Map view during flight, so much the better.

The lack of sorting for any of the stock KSP lists is really annoying. It's needed on Craft load lists, craft in tracking station, Astronaut lists, contracts, parts... you know, anything that's a list!

At least the focus craft should have a blue outline (as it has a blue orbit) and target craft should have a green outline. Also think we need many more icons for craft types or even better be able to add our own, but being able to color code them would be a step in the right direction.

matter with all the small things is always accumulations, at some point: || and focus. just a though.

I think folders might be a bit overkill, but I really wouldn't mind some new sorting options, or a search function. Support or even a good reason for running multiple missions at once seems to be lacking, i'd rather see that changed, considering SQUAD seems to want to focus more on the "space program" part of the game, and time management is a huge part of a lot of games. Considering the fact that we have the sci-lab producing science now based on time, i'd like to see more time based features, like life support.

[razark]

Allowing players to create new categories of crafts is also needed.

[DarkGravity]

I can't stand that there are so many things in orbit that are on the back burner, but my GAS STATION has a small dark icon that is easily overlooked.

[DarkGravity]

You know, the more I think about this, the more amazed I am. Basically, all those icons crowded together... they are black and white. In 2015.
