Tracking Station Should Use Research Lab Organization Style?

[Bug_]

Suggestion posed through a picture: Organize your ships by planet/moon:

Oh man! This is a brilliant idea!

I've always disliked how cluttered the tracking station was, but it never occurred to me that that problem could be solved.

Yes. By midgame its clutered with orbiters for every joolian body, orbiters and landers for eve/duna, not to mention local missions.

I support Tracking Station reform.

That sounds awesome!

Awesome idea!

Also, they should rename it Mission Control, since Mission Control tracks/operates current missions in flight. Their "mission control" is a contract office or something, it has nothing to do with current missions in flight.

Oh this would come in incredibly handy, yet no one though of it before lol.

10/10 would love to see it in the game.

+Rep given!

One of many UI improvements I would like in 1.1. Any time Squad says they're trying to remake the UI exactly it hurts my heart.

Actually I think someone did think of this before. I just can't find it.

Folders or groups for the tracking station has come up many times. One of many good ideas that continue to pop up here from time to time.

Yes, and use the same planetary UI for contracts too.

I'd only add maybe they should take a look at VAB/SPH hanger and unify all of them to consistent style and logic.

Overall fully agree remaking the same mistakes as they update to Unity5 UI just because that's how it was done would be a colossal let down.

yeah the universe appears to organize itself by galaxy, then solar system, then planetary system, then celestial body itself... universe knows what its at.
