[req] docking lighting distance

[darkconsole]

the lights that direct you to docking ports, it would be nice if we could increase the distance that they are visible from. those of us with giant ships need more time to get aligned.

 

currently they dont seem to pop in till about 5km out, and these big ships need at least 20km to slow down.

 

if its an issue with screen clutter then maybe only if its targeted. consider it a part of the hud, an ILS system.

Bump +1

 

Do you mean like a proximity lamp?

Green if 20km+ away

Yellow, within 10km

Red within 1km?

 

K, Anything that helps with docking is always welcome.

Plus, it just might look cool

no you know the proximity by having the distance listed near the targeting reticle. i just want the lights to lod farther out so you can see them and actually know what side to start shifting towards.
