I love the overview update, but can we get rid of the word "Stargate" in stargate names? It makes it hard to navigate unless your name column is set really wide.

MAKE IT SO

Also if you devs wanna keep stargate on it then you can put it on the other side:

Jita (Stargate)
Dodixie (Stargate)
Amarr (Stargate)
Rens (Stargate)
etc...

I'd imagine it'd be a 10 minute script running for half an hour through every entry and just moving them all.

I also could see this as a client-side patch, but I don't know how much the names are tied into the DB...

Well how bout since the show info for the gate itself might have some relevance to someone somewhere you add the "Show Target System Info" as a new button?

Adding buttons and info links would be far more complicated. Fixing the strings is simple. When I saw the latest client update, I was all Big smile. But then I saw it didn't fix this, and it made me Cry.

Yes why the hell did they put stargate in front... not all of us need to use AP to find where we are going... it aint the yellow gate everytime...

/signed. This is brought up about once a year. We already know it is a stargate CCP, that's what those little icon do-hicky thingers are for.
