Ion storm notification issues
Two issues (that technically aren't bugs, so I post them here) with ion storm notifications:
1. There is a notification about being caught in an ion storm and how to get out when jumping into a sector with a storm, but there isn't one when a storm starts in your current sector.
2. The notification you get upon jumping into a sector reads like this:
> You've been caught in an ion storm. To proceed to your destination, you'll need to fly to the storm exit point, marked on your HUD.
Now the second sentence of that is always included, whether the player has a navigation destination set or it. I've seen this occasionally lead to confusion with new players. So maybe instead of "To process to your destination," it could read "To jump to another sector, first".
