So as a new player, having multiple places to access commands can be confusing. I noticed that in particular the Loyalty Point stores did not have a corresponding icon on the left toolbar, and the only place I could find it was in the Station icon list. It took some time to locate this icon.

I might recommend choosing either having it in both places or reducing the redundancy. At least for a "new player HUD". In this way the player is encouraged to hunt down the icon or given multiple chances to locate it. There is always so much going on in the viewable area, even making an icon unique doesn't do much until you understand its purpose and associate that with a need.

It only shows in the station service panel as it's just that, a station service. I don't think you can find a repair shop -icon in the neocom or the character recustomization either

there are some services, such as the LP store, that are ONLY accessible and useful in a station, so those ones only show up on the station list. the ones that show up in both locations are because you have a use for those icons anywhere.

Sad it's like 92596413648546354 times zero. The result is still the same.
