Feature request:

I use Echoview with the config setting "Reload on Activate." In Winplan I set a waypoint and it shows it immediately when I switch back to Echoview. Or in Winplan I lay mines, switch to Echoview and use Shift+F3 to see the minefield. To get Echoview to update with PCC2 I must exit to "Choose Game" screen before it updates in Echoview. Can it be made so that PCC2 pokes Echoview the same way Winplan does?

That change would have me using PCC2 over WinPlan as the progress you've made on it is amazing. The below requests fall under the "would be nice" category.

Ship Screen ('F1'):
- Button to toggle starmap grid on/off
- Config option in ini to set default zoom of starmap
- Mousewheel up/down zooms in/out starmap instead of cycling ships.
- if mousewheel is no-go, than page up/dwn works too.

Navigation Screen ('a' from Ship Screen):
- Button to toggle starmap grid on/off
- Mousewheel up/down zooms in/out starmap

Planet Screen ('F2'):
- Button to toggle starmap grid on/off
- Config option in ini to set default zoom of starmap

Starbase Screen ('F3'):
- Button to toggle starmap grid on/off
- Config option in ini to set default zoom of starmap

Starchart ('F4'):
- Button to toggle starmap grid on/off
- A method to donate/buy you a couple cups of coffee? I've been playing PLANETS off and on (mostly off) for 20+ years and your still contributing .... I just want to say thanks.

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
