Something simple, like instead of 'Haven is under blockade' or 'New Pakistan is being attacked!' or 'enemy detected near Oceania'
it would say 'Haven in R33 is under blockade' and 'New Pakistan in Lalande is being attacked!' and 'enemy detected near Oceania in Wolf##'
So annoying to see these distress calls and then try to remember where the damned planets are, and then search for them in a nav screen that's not really search-friendly. It would help so much to include the system.

No need, doesn't the system have a red circle on nav-view?

Good point, but it is only valid if there is only one planet with enemies around it - which is sometimes the case however, but not always which is why I think this post was made. I stand by my signature

Honestly, I rarely see those rings that's why I'm suggesting this. Lots of times you get a message of enemy detected or something but there's no visual on nav screen.
The only time I ever really see those rings is when I'm just logging on and looking for a shipyard to spawn at.
