Summary0013019: Selected ships might need to be indicated more clearly.
DescriptionThe small circle/glow that indicates which ships you have selected is a bit too small and gets drowned out sometimes because of how far you can be zoomed out and because of all the projectiles and other effects flying around.

I strongly agree with this.

Note that the "Tidying for Alpha" includes this idea too:

Possibly a display of the types of selected ships inside the row above the bottom icons.

This would really help.

Also, then you can shift click the ship icons on the bottom to remove some ships from a selection.

See also the linked issue.

Thanks!

* The selection rings for ships were not properly scaling up with ships as you zoomed out in the prior version of the game, making it almost impossible to see what you had selected when you were zoomed out at all.

* "Giant" ships like your flagship now show larger selection rings in general, even when zoomed in.

* The clickable area for ships now scales up with the zoom going out, so that you can still click them when you are zoomed out. And for flagships, this area is now larger in general.
