Default Re: Status of systems not presently seen

This is why stuff like planet names, ship names, planet values, etc. must be stored separately for each system's "Last seen" status, in case the actual values on the objects change at a date later than you Last visited that system.
Since in the current game you can see the current planet names and the resources values of the planets in all systems you have explored I see no reason to change this. Sure it would be nice but one thing at a time.
It might be more productive if you spent more time thinking of ways to make this work instead of finding reason why it can't every post.
Even storing just the planet ownership would be very helpfull. Saving all the old turns and opening them to find this info is very cumbersome.
