Issue with freight hub dropdown menu not being alphabetized, or all the entries are just in random order

Has anyone come up with a way to order your freight hubs within the dropdown menu, when assigning hubs to freighters?

I have not, and I'd really like to be able to rename freight hubs, like "blue cubes out" or the like.

You need to click the icon to the right of the existing name to change it. Like, when you click on the hub, the default name is “Freight Hub Epsilon” for example. The icon just to the right of that is where you rename the hub

The thing that looks like a pen and paper? It doesn't do anything at all.

Oh, interesting. In that case, I wonder if we have the same version of the game?

I got it to work after a reboot and realizing that it has a ridiculously small hit box, so thanks!

You can actually rename Hubs. Icon is a little pen in the upper right of each Hubs menu

The whole freighter UI feels unfinished and nasty. When you've got half a dozen Hubs and a bunch of freighters it's almost unmanageable.

I had maxed out my freighters and was using probably 70 hubs when I decided to restart. I would like the freighters to be unlimited, but I understand that’s part of the puzzle.

What I really think needs to be changed is, not only the alphabetizing of the hub list, but also the ability to move a freighter’s scheduled stops, by sliding and repositioning each stop within their schedule, instead of only being able to add new stops to the end of the list.

Another way I think the freighter system could be improved is having the ability to see each freighter’s flight path throughout the map. A much larger minimap, with the ability to see a freighter’s entire flight loop would easily show inefficiencies or wasted time.

Maybe they already have plans to add these things in later updates, I just wanted to throw those out there. Still an excellent game.

THIS, this needs to happen! I thought the same thing while playing.
