I like the idea of it....could you also have a menu while in F3 veiw of a planet , so you can check the contents of a far away starport?

Planet Menu Options.
You right click on a friendly planet and get the following options, ones that are not currently available will be greyed out:-
Orbit [O]
Dock
------
Trade - Selects starport
Manufacturing >> Factory1, Factory2 etc.- Selects chosen factory.
------
Commands >> Capture, Defend
------
Planet Management [F3] - Opens the Planet F3 interface

Another requested feature:-
Currently it is impossibly to find out quickly which planet in your system has the most depots. It has been suggested to add a small display under each planet name givin its resupply rating in light blue coloured dots of light blue bar graphic.
Suggestion by Bobamelius:- In F2 and F3 mode have a pulsing red border on planets under blockade or with enemies detected nearby.

19:18:52 [-GTN-]Bobamelius: "Also would be nice to have some way to figure out where there's a conflict happening, besides whether or not a planet's under blockade at the moment... maybe some kind of indicator to show that enemies have been sighted near the planet/system within the past 10 minutes or something"
19:22:54 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "bobamelius. that was what me and jack were thinking for the f5 menu"
19:23:06 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "atm it just shows the current order you are given"
19:23:24 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "was thinking of having it show planet alerts for last 10 mins"
19:23:46 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "and have a time log of all orders received since you have logged in"
19:23:53 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "newest at top"
19:24:05 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "possibly having the name and rank of the issuer"
19:24:09 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "next to order"
19:24:24 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "planet alerts would be at top by default"
19:24:39 [*MYTH*]Drafell: "and you would aslo have filter options to show various things"
If you enabled people to view the orders log from in ship selection it would be VERY useful.
