Ion Storm reports

Sep 07, 2015 Rhine link
The Ion Storms pose a problem to newbies, I thought of something that's easy to do (and doesn't take too much time to place)

Make Channel 203 be like 201 and 202 but it broadcasts sectors where an Ion Storm is present (ex. *High Concentrations of Ion Particles detected at Latos I-8, pilots are warned of entering said sector)

Tell me what you think! (You guys add details you want, I have to sleep)

-1 to making this automatic. It defeats the purpose of ion storms if the game automatically tells people where they are and how to avoid them.

Players can (and do) already do this.

-1 There actually used to be a plugin someone made that kept an update on ion storms as players who used it encountered them. Not sure what happened to that. Best just to plot around asteroids as a matter of habit.

There were at least two, I had made one. I forgot who made the other. It didn't catch on I guess.
