Default Re: Needs a Note field for ships...

This game is great, but it would be great to have a note field for information/reminders like this.



Yes, a note field as mentioned will help. But right now, I try to have ships playing "zone defense". Meaning transports are assigned to a particular system/planet. The name of those transports can simply be "MdTrans Fortunil I". Then those transports will pick up their cargo at their "home planet" and be sent to a destination. Once the destination is reached, I can check its name and send it back to where it came from.

Some of them might be doing population redistribution within a system. So the name will be "SmTrans Inter-Fortunil". Or a transport going back and forth 2 planets "LgTrans Fortunil I-Eskirk IV".

well, just some ideas....
