Need some kind of quantum jump radius display

Post by Lord QDaan »

It's difficult to determine where to put fighters if I want them to quantum with a capship. It can be very annoying to go and try to jump with an escort and suddenly find yourself defenseless. Conversely, when in a fighter it's no fun to accidentally jump with a freighter into the middle of nowhere. Maybe some kind of toggle key could create a semi-transparent sprite of radius equal to the jump radius. The same key could create little circles around ships on the map screen.
