Sometimes it gets confusing what jump gate is next when you have a destnation and a few way points some of which dubble back on them selves. For instance say i set a destnation to system a then system b and then c then i return to a at some point i will have 2 yellow jump gates on my overview.


What i propose is changing the color of each way point to say blue for waypoint 2 green to way point 3 ect . or add a number to the gate name like (2.) jump gate name


PS please forgive my gramer.

There is a 'next system' show on your waypoints thingie in the UI. You know, the thing with the coloured squared in a row.

Yeah, I understand what you mean. Its a good idea.... it's been proposed before, and the new waypoint UI comes close to helping, but changing the colours or even only highlighting the next jump gate on your overview in yellow would avoid come confusion when traveling.

I agree!
I hate it when I haul something inexpensive (therefore not concentrating) and then I have to figure out wich of the two-three yellow gates is the right one right now.
