Default Crappy map editor

I’m working again in the Star Wars Galaxy Map, it will be nice to have it working for the Sci-fi Crossover Mod.
I know this has been posted many times before, but the map editor is really hard to use.

I want to be able to manually add a system, selecting a type from SystemTypes.txt and having it generated the same way the map generator does, with all random planets and values.

Adding warp points is a hell. The only thing you can select with the mouse is the entrance point.
Then you have to select destination system. To do that you have to close the window and check the name of the system, then go back and select that name and manually enter coords inside that system.
And like if all that work wasn’t enough, you can only make a 1 way warp point and have to repeat the process to make the other way.
It’s easier to add warp points by using stellar manipulation inside the game, than using the editor!!!

What I want is manually pick two systems and have them automatically joined by a normal 2 ways warp point, with the entrances located in the default locations in the edge of the system and according to the warp line angle.
