This is something I'd like to see, too. When I play I wind up writing down the systems as I go... and whenever you have to do basic bookkeeping like that, that's something the game should be doing for you.

For some reason....that never happened to me...never. I don't see how someone can "accidentally" press [G] over a wrong stargate. It says the name...of the gate....and if that's not the one you want, go to the next! Don't press [G]!

I think the point here is that not everyone posses a perfect memory or has written down which star-system he'd been to yet.
So if you end up having all these gates and didn't really pay attention to the system name - what do you do? You end up choosing one.
And seeing how this is a game playing in the age of computers, I'm sure you would have some kind of ships log to look into, right? It's a spaceships for gods sake :lol: :lol:
Also - you might consider this - not everyone has english as their natural language - so some names that slip over your tongue easily might be more difficult for others. If you want an offhand example - try remembering 5 different african names and repeat them after a couple of hours pointing to the right faces. I personally would have trouble there with Kningi, Kwase, Ngombe etc.. Hope I didn't insult anyone.

it would be very helpful if networks became more popular.

This is a good idea. I'm tired of moving back and forth not remembering which way is towards the Core ;)
