"Where am I researching"-Hint

Since RD we do not see on which planet we're actually researching something.
This needs to be changed again!

I nicked this from the german board :)
Thread on the german Board

Here a few examples of how this could be implemented:
Extend the message when you want to cancel the research

Extend the message on the overview

other idea that i just came up with...
add another icon like the wrench, just a small "test tube"

examples:

but I dont really like my own idea... probably would just fill up too much space in the planet list

that would make thing too much crowded in the planet list honestly.

Why? So make a one digit-like (digital display)icon where multiple icons can be placed/seen at same time.
Like flower for example - each leaf would be coloured icon - wrench (yellow) - testu tube (green) - and under leaf can be placed the "attack" icon.
Each variation of icons will be as one picture, system will activate concerned icon picture. For example, i'm doing right now a research and either i'm building something. So system will tell, that there should placed picture with wrench and test tube. Or for example, i'm building something and someone is attacking me. System will tell, that there should be another variation of that icon picture - wrench and red attack icon.

Any question ? Sadly i don't work with any program to create this "icon", so someone please help

with GIMP or so

i dont need any icon next the planet list... the researches take a minimum of 5 weeks and i will know the day it finishes because then i'll have to organize my 200million+ resources (1,2billion for my next astro level).

but the overview part with the (starting) planet name is definitfly a nice idea! seeing forward to have somethin like that
