KincaidFrankMF Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 On some bodies altitude/terrain details can be quite difficult to make out from orbit. Like, orbiting Vall I passed from Lowlands to Mountains and couldn't even see the mountain how ever carefully I looked... It's all a grey blur. Which is probably perfectly realistic, it's just not super helpful when trying to spot a good landing site. So I'm thinking some kind of map overlay where different altitudes show up as different colours/shades would help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowi_Sace Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 That would indeed be helpful. I would love to see map overlays for in the tracking station. I was thinking about elevation (like in your comment), temperatures (great for colony planning) and a resource overlay. This could be coupled with (orbital) scanning. This would make science also have direct impact on gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
