traffic control tab?

OK.

Was playing last night doing some random wandering of the space lanes and I had an idea.

Would it be possible to add a third tab in the top left corner with the General and Mission tabs.

Call it TrafCon or something and put all those annoying
"you are entering Serco Monitored space" messages in it.

Would kind of defeat the purpose of issuing those messages in the first place.

i think that would be great! mainly because most people who would ignore the messages are expierenced enough to know where the hell they are

having them in the mission tab allready defeats the purpose of them.

I think it's already confusing enough having two chat tabs to switch back and forth between. It would be nice if the Mission tab could be replaced with some sort of pop-up GUI where all pertinent information on the current mission could be accessed. Messages about traffic could go under regular chat.

I think that we should just have two additional tabs that are customizable. One can be set to a player-made weather channel tab or something, and the other... just whatever you want...

I can't stand them being in the mission tab, I check to see which sector to go to and instead I get a bunch of "You are entering itani monitored space" messages, quite annoying when you are actually playing the game.

I think we should have 2 tabs, unlabled... but we get to pick all the things that go in there.

Like Tab 1:
Channel 100
"Kill Messages"
Sector Messages

Tab 2:
Mission Data
Channel <Weather Channel, whatever it is>

I agree with Monk. And we should be able to name and rename the tabs, so we can know what's in there. Like lables.
