Show Fulgora Lightning Rod coverage in map view

TL;DR

Show Fulgora Lightning Rod coverage in map view

What?

Since there are no enemies on Fulgora and the map does not track pollution on the planet, the Pollution overlay toggle in the map/remote view screen is pointless. Replace it with a button to toggle showing coverage of Lightning Rods/Collectors.

Why?

This information is technically already available in map view, but requires the extra step of holding a Lightning Rod in your hand to see the coverage areas.

Yes! And it can also behave as a toggle for terroritories in vulcanus, which is also a planet exclusive mechanic.
Perhaps the name of this button can be renamed as show local threat, to show enemy/pollution on nauvis/gleba and terroritories on vulcanus and dangerous zone on fulgora.

The pollution tab is useless on any surface other than Nauvis so using it for local threats like lightning/demolishers/etc would be intuitive.

It works on Gleba as well, and even has it's name changed to "Spores" to track the spore cloud around agricultural towers. Icon stays the pollution cloud/flame, though, which does look a bit strange.

But Imo it should be separate from pollution so that I can have pollution disabled while still showing lightning, or demolishers; and instead options irrelevant to the current planet are hidden.
That way when we get mods that add demolishers, lightning and pollution on a single planet we still have options for them

Adding my voice to the stack.

Can we also have ALL the lightning rod/collectors highlighted when overing over one ? (a bit like how hovering over an electrical pole show the machines connected to that pole)

[Marzz06]

+1 I agree this is needed.

[hitzu]

I was surprised this is not a feature yet

[DeadMG]

Would be very nice

Also, I'd like to see all lightning rod coverage in the minimap while holding one on the cursor, similar to the radar coverage.

+1 to this, would be great

Here to give my +1 to this as well!

If you have one in your hand (eg. remote view), it'll show the range.

It would be good to see on the map which ones are the lower grade ones and the upgraded ones (don't remember the name).
