We have these options for sorting out planets: Show all Planets, Enemy Planets, Your Planets, Legion Planets, Unoccupied Planets, Recently Scanned
There seems to be enough space for two more for sorting out planets. (At least to my view) After you have 100+ planets colonized out of 500+ total, looking for the planet you just colonized or invaded could be extremely difficult. I propose two more options: Recently Colonized, Recently Invaded
Recently Settled will show you the list of planets that you colonized/Invaded in the past 5 days.
Legion Alerted shows you the planets that you/your legion members have alerted.
Recently Lost shows you your planets that were invaded by a different player in the past 5 days.
Filter by Legion shows you the planets owned by the legion you want specified.
Filter Configuration lets you customize how you want to filter planets.

Good idea, i hate having to look, and remember the planets i have invaded, and seeing whether they need to be buffed with defense or guarded...+1

Should be a tab for alerted planets.

good Idea, but Recently Colonized and Recently invaded shoudl be included together, since the most you can possibly invade in a single day is 6 (1 per day + the five one time use mission artifacts that reset all timers), while you can colonize as many planets as you like in a day you generally don't do more than a few of those either.
So why have a tab for recently invaded when it will have at the most 1-2 planets on it at any given time, it should be a single tab "Recently Settled"

Here's my idea:  The extras are: Legion logo with a ! - Legion alerted planets Planet with a crown - Planets you owned but have been recently taken from you. Planet with shield - Planets you have recently conquered or occupied (last 7 days?) Filter by legion - only shows planets which are owned by the specified legion. Filter by player - only shows planets owned by the specified player. Filter by production - returns planets with the specified production or higher. Again, I only have paint to use, but I hope you get the idea

But back on topic, does what I've made make sense, and would it be useful? Filter by production is already done in info at least well enough, if you don;t use Chrome you can already do multi-tiered sorting too. I often do things like type in "Massive Research Rich" in the filter shows me all the Massive and Very Massive research planets which are Rich or better. Or I might type in "Large Abundant Mining" or perhaps just "Massive" and then sort by best resource. Combined with the clickable set queries such as "Enemy" or "Your" or "Unoccupied" it gets me 90% of what I want in terms of the resource filtering. But I do totally agree with your two new button suggestions, and the other two filter types.. I definitely like the filter by legion part too, and the filter by owner. The extra buttons make perfect sense for planets taken from you and planets you've climbed aboard through invasion or colonization too. good on ya. However I would like to see more planet stats given in the list itself, but I never bothered to try to moc it up because I have no real photo skills whatsoever, lol! -B

So why have a tab for recently invaded when it will have at the most 1-2 planets on it at any given time, it should be a single tab "Recently Settled" Sounds good. I'll update the first post. spyder wrote: Here's my idea:  The extras are: Legion logo with a ! - Legion alerted planets Planet with a crown - Planets you owned but have been recently taken from you.

Filter by player - only shows planets owned by the specified player. Filter by production - returns planets with the specified production or higher. Again, I only have paint to use, but I hope you get the idea Legion alerted planets could be useful. I'll add that. Planets Recently Lost - Could be useful for those who were gone for more than 2 days and missed the log for a planet that was lost 2+ days ago. +1 Recently Settled seems to go with recently invaded and occupied. Filter by Legion - Many members have suggested this, and your Paint skills show us that it can be done. +1 Filter by Player - There are MANY players, and once you get up to 500+ enemy occupied planets, this wouldn't be useful, for myself. Filter by Legion might help this. Filter by Production - Type in a resource in the "Filter by Info" and it will only come up with planets with that resources only. Same for "unoccupied"

All the types of suggested sorting should be added then there would be an option which ever way we wanted to organize planet lists

Dan is already full with suggestions and updates. I'd like this to be implemented after Base Combat and the other ones he's working on. Take your time, Dan!
