[Feature Request] Exit Finder #370

Open dnolen opened 7 years ago

dnolen commented 7 years ago

Request: Enable a searchable exit finder so systems not in the routes panel is searchable to locate and prompt to mark the closest exit based on the system search.

Why not to use the "routes panel" for that? We could add a hover function to the rows (routes) that could highlight the systems/connections on the current map. So anyone could see the exit on the map.

Because you can have Max 4 entries in the routes and some people bind trade hubs as a quick reference. If you add another system via the search one of the static entries gets removed.

Understand, it´s currently hard coded: https://github.com/exodus4d/pathfinder/blob/master/js/app/ui/system_route.js#L304

But if you are just looking for a new route ("find route" dialog), there is no search limit for routes.

Would it help make max count of "predefined routes" configurable for self hosted installations, and than add a "highlight route* "option"?
