This is a pretty simple suggestion.

In most bigger games, you can leave "markers" in an area. It leaves something on a special area so that you can go back and find where you put your marker in case you forget what sector you leave.


The red lines represent leaving a sector and the blue lines represent returning to the sector you left.

Before the marker, you go to a sector to get something. But when you want to go back to the sector you left, you have to go looking everywhere if you forget it.

BUT, with the marker, you can easily go to another sector and get back to the sector you left.

What do you guys think?

this guy had a cooler suggestion.

that guy is awesome.

though, this should have been added to the list.

This idea is a bit more basic.

yeah. i realise that but your suggestion probably fits nicely as an extra feature of buoys in general.

when you'd drop one, it could probably stay on your nav map.

edit: disclaimer: i'm actually mgl_mouser. i was being sarcastic over myself.

It's a great add-on and people would be thankful for it.

well, no!
If you wanna remember where you were, just try to remember!
If everything was done for ya, the game would turn into a movie.
That'd be boring.

Then people could make mining bots.
