Add planet icons next to alerts and seperate them by planet.

why?
It would make it much easier to determine if an alert requires immediate attention in a clean way

for space stations there can just be an image of the space platform tile in front of the Planet that the space station is on and as far as modded surfaces go there already has to be a planet icon for the surfaces tab and space map so that shouldn't be an issue

Seems good to me! (Although I only just started my Fulgora base. :lol:)

Oh wow, this wouldn't solve as many issues as fully configurable alerts would, but would be already quite a step forward !

It would be pretty great to have little planet icons on the alerts, or something similar, to make it clear which planet an alert originates from.

In my current playthrough I'm constantly noticing that something is being attacked, but I can't tell at a glance whether it's a planet I really need to worry about or not.

Please add Planet specific alerts to 2.1

Its been a year since my original post and I think its the perfect time to implement this and that all players would benefit from it. Id personaly like to not think my gleba base is in danger when a single wall on nauvis brakes

The entire notifications system, while massively improved in 2.0, still needs some work, so +1 on this.

It would also be nice if we could limit "structure taking damage" notifications to only trigger if an object gets below a certain health threshold (like 50%) so that the occasional biter wall damage doesn't alert us the same way mining equipment getting destroyed does.

+1 the notification system needs a overhaul, missed way to many alerts because it was to fast for me to click on them, +1 to all the other suggestions above this one too
