I like to be in a logistic, but I have a real problem to remember who is who in my watchlist. I woud like to see an option to color code ppl in watchlist. So I can sett anchor to blue, dictors to red, cap buddy to yellow and so on. Only need 9 or so colors to make it really good.

I hope you consider my proposal

well no, you can color code the how ever you want.

for myself I would have the same color on all logi, one for all tackle and one for ancor (and so on). you wil be color coding the character not the ship. do you follow?

not completely... would the proposed colour reset every time the char enters a new ship? i am thinking along the terms of marked pilot is flying a logi carrier in a fleet battle... then next day you are both involved in a smaller battle and they choose to bring a cheap tackle frig... would they still be marked as logi?

It would be like the watchlist itself. every time you leave the fleet it would be reset. standard is no color in the watchlist. would need to setup color for every fleet your in.

Should be easy to implement and has no downside. +1

An alternative idea for consideration: Watch list groups. You just set up a handful of groups and put your pilots into them as needed. Not sure if this would be any better or worse than color coding.

Does this mean you'll try to do it? Because if so, that would be more awesome.
