A friend of mine asked me if there was an easier way to find unscanned curiosities. Putting some thought into this, I realized how tedious finding curiosities can be when you unlock higher curiosity scanning tech. So I came up with a possible solution:


Please add a Pulsating Cirlce (similar to the one that appears over a system's tiny planet icon in Galaxy View) to the entire Star System while in Galaxy View Scan Mode (SPACEBAR) for:


  • ECONOMY SCAN
  • TRADE SCAN
  • or even DIPLOMACY SCAN

This would make it much easier to find unscanned curiosities in the galaxy after you reach higher scan tech or even just to find ones you may have passed during earlier exploration.

Thanks for saying that. I almost never use Scans for anything more than novelty.

I think this goes into the category of better conveyance of information and I agree, it's something that could use a little attention.  I'd also like to see some sort of color differentiation on planet icons, such as for when they have a curiosity, or when you can only colonize them because of the "hardship ready" law but don't have the tech to otherwise.  The game woefully underuses color for visual distinction in the UI.

Anything would be better than the pixel hunting we currently have to endure.
