Currently you flux probe a planet and get the message

Gwentel: The probe returns with data:
2 other ship(s) have scanned this planet
*surrounded in a green box*

Laouesding: The probe returns with data:
0 other ship(s) have scanned this planet
*also surrounded in a green box*

Can you change the color of the box to red when there are other scans on the planet?

Would make probing easier if you could rely on your peripheral vision to spot a change from green to red.

Yeah, it's a good idea but it's not going to happen. Is this just daydreaming about how this game could be better? What percentage of suggestions that have a huge string of '+1s' get implemented, looking at the archives and then to the content? And yes, any further comments would probably be best placed in a separate thread but I really have no interest in starting an Icarium/PLURVION-style tirade against Dan. It's near-guaranteed to not happen, don't waste your time.
