There is currently a 'size' column for our overview however this atrribute is 99% useless as it merely shows the static size attribute shown in an item's info window. I would like a size column that rather displays an up to date target signature radius. We have a speed column and numerous others which already update constantly.

From a technical standpoint we already know the server is updating the data constantly.

From a lore standpoint if my ships sensors can determine the target's speed, velocity, angular velocity, trajectory already. Why is it unable to update thr proper effective size of my target?

Is it too much to ask for a column which can show us targets' signature radius which takes into account their rigs, shield extenders, mwd bloom, target painters and boosts?

This would be nice. Would be much easier trying to decide if that cruiser is engage-able with my bomber alt Big smile

Would this not give away quite a lot about the fit of your target? High sig radius values meaning it's shield tanked, the higher the more extenders/rigs etc?
