Add indication of which ship you are on, in the ship list

Post by Colin969 »

TL;DR
Finding out where I am in space when I load back into a save can be very confusing, and I was close to making a bug report because I couldn't drop from the ship. It turned out I wasn't even on it.
What?
Add some kind of indication that your player is on a particular spaceship, possibly with an icon on the lefthand side in the list of ships.
Why?
Whenever you're on a ship, you're forced into remote view. If you are viewing a different ship when you save, the next time you load it'll look as if you're present on that ship instead, since both are in the remote view. You can even request to drop from this ship, and get some very confusing indications on the interface. Whilst I won't make this mistake again, it seems like a very easy mistake to make a very confusing one to realize has happened.
