Ok so does everyone prefer incoming alerts to work like they used to in Astro wars or do you guys want to keep Radar.
Here is the difference.
Current System Radar.
Provides you a real time display of incoming ships.
Allows the ability reroute to exist.
Old Astro War System
Only the current planet owner receives a message when a fleet is launched to the planet.
The ability to reroute a ship will be removed.
Ghost fleets would be possible.
If we decide on doing this. I would like to just do the update and get it over with when I'm ready to do it. So do it during this round.
I also plan to make radar a server option. So will be able enable or disable it.
Incase for future player made servers in the future or just what ever.

Radar positives - very visible when you open game, more modern than old system
Radar negatives - lots of unknown exclamations on the map, too powerful in that you see everything but also too weak in that the information is very vague
Old AW positives - alerted when you are not in-game. The information can be specific and have more Intel, allows for many strategies for war.
Old AW negatives - relies on outside of the game tech. A bit primitive and not fitting into the app. Perhaps change can be good and Old system does not need to be law.
I will have to think on it a little. There are other features of your game that need more attention such as the clunky fleet launching and nearly useless planet information saving icon (bottom left).

I am fine with the radar, but, I would be inclined to limit it to combat ships and planets.
Tying in with radar, The battle reports do not tell who the defender is, nor how much CV was used to fight the attacker. This is information that should be critical. All we learn is losses...

I give you an other idea…
Like in old AW some players click to be a trader (and it cost some points…) why you don’t do the same with this?… No one can’t see the ghosts attacks, but if in your race you pay for be a scanner, then, you can see the ghosts attacks and advise to your allies…

I would keep the current radar with the following functionality.
The current planet owner and allies who are reinforcing a planet will receive a message when a fleet is launched to the planet, or was launched before it was taken over and is on the way.
And it would change the following:
I would disable radar on vacant planets.
Ghost fleets would only be possible on empty planets even if they are sieged by another player.
The idea is to avoid the hundreds of systems that are now sieged and no one will ever take over.
In addition, the possibility of sending fleets to systems close to the enemy to reduce the attack time is lost.
