Summary0016937: Prior to dropping the lander does not provide any meaningful hint as to the ramification of your choice.
DescriptionWhilst its a turn 0 concern. The selection of a site doesn't provide sufficient feedback (hint) as to what the consequences of selecting a site implies. Only after the site is selected do you see information about your choice. Possibly a design choice, but seems counter intuitive.

Would it be possible to provide a more detailed tool tip that shows the +/- benefits of potential landing sites?

Also afaik landing next to or on top of a resource doesn't help you harvest it faster and instead kills it so something to reduce the chance of player doing that would be good.

I don't think there is any benefit to landing in a place compared to another, but a tooltip to prevent landing on a resource sounds nice.

For 0.909:

* The tooltip on most tiles during lander placement is now different, showing info about that territory and the Act 1 objective associated with it.

* Attempting to place the lander now shows a special confirmation window with info on the territory you're about to choose, the other territories you could choose, and the ability to name your starting territory (this replaces the separate prompt to name the lander territory, since that conflicts with other stuff now).

Thanks :)
