Hi,

There needs to be a way to tell the home planet of a freighter. I build lots of them and send them out into the galaxy. When they all arrive at the destinations, I've no idea where they started, i.e. an 18 planet or a 26 planet. When you only have so many trade routes you can make a really bad choice and kill a profitable trade route to have it replaced with a 1 credit per route.

How about amending the popup box that says you've reached your trade route capacity with information about how much this route would actually earn, starting point and any other useful information? This way we can make an informed decision on which routes to kill and still make money!

Cheers,
Dominic

For now, you could rename your freighters to include their home star name.

What ever solution you come up with, I hope it is an addition to the trade routes screen. When trade routes first got added (in the Alpha?) the source planet for each freigher appeared in the trade route list from the time the freigher was built (along with the obvious problems). Having this information at hand while studying the current trade routes was invaluable, and I was very sad to see this information vanish from the trade routes screen.
