Kms and AUs

Wouldn't it be good if there was a toggle between Kms and AUs in the D-Scan? There could be a slider or dial too which allowed you to change values and get a new scan automatically. If you really wanted to make D-scanning more fun you could improve the graphics with a cone and maybe bands to represent scan parameters.

And then directional would become stupidly easy to use, and stupidly accurate.

Seriously, 147 = 1 AU. It's not that hard.

Customizable filters would be nice though, it is annoying having to swap overview tabs for directional.

Yeah lets make the one remaining general feature in EVE that requires actual skill to use, easier to use.

While we're at it, why don't we remove warp to zero and the skill queue?

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

I always thought they should just get rid of AU altogether. After all supposedly Earth is virtually legendary, yet we use a unit of distance equal to the Earth-sun distance?

Instead use Mm (Maga meters, Gm (Giga meters) and T m (Terra meters).
Nice to see Mg (Mega grams) and Gg (Giga grams) too. Or Tons and Kilotons.
