Hello. I do not have the greatest eye sight and often find it's difficult to see where my ship is in game. I would like to have an option where i can enable an indicator of my character.

It could be something like a bracket in overlay settings
Or an option to enable a circle around your own character (like the circle when you hover over yourself)

Anyway, hope to hear back. Thanks.

Couldn't agree more. I travel with the overlay on just so I know where my ship is relative to everything else, as lets face it most people that do any PVP tend to play zoomed out.

I agree. Definitely one of the little things that could be added to help some without being a detriment to others.

The "look at" key (ALT) does force your own ship's bracket to show up, though it's not any bigger than others and the color is only slitghtly more blue-ish... spamming the key to make it blink may help if you need to locate your own ship fast, I guess. Or just use the tactical overlay as stated before.
I'm not aware of other ways to do so.
But I do agree that it's all workarounds for something that should be an option.
