[REQ] Notes on map

A super handy feature I came across in another game called Sword of the Stars would have tremendous value in DW as well.

A Notes feature, where you can pin a note on planets and locations on the map. You can scribble notes to help you remember stuff and on the overview map (perhaps at a certain zoom level) a special icon would be visible over the location to indicate you have written a note about it.

Just an idea. ;)

I agree it would certainly make less paperwork while I am playing. Notes should be attached to Systems, Ships, Fleets just like SoTS I. Its been on the master list wish list thread for awhile (page 34), but worth mentioning again because it would make "playing" the game more efficient.

I've used note flags in Civ games as well. They would be even more useful here to help keep track of who is planned to do what.

add to this the ability to designate these areas as "off limits" or "restricted" so automated ships would recognize this would be AWEEEESOME![;)]
