I’ve noticed my companions sometimes wander off and find stuff, and sometimes they mine stuff, but I’ve never seen them fight or do anything else. Even the thing they do, they do them rarely, so I wonder if there’s anything else to them, especially those unique companions like the sentinel dog or the space jellyfish.

… A ‘favourites’ tag for planets you want to ‘bookmark’ for return trips.

So far the only way I can feasibly mark a planet as a ‘favourite’ (or simply as a point of particular interest) is to either use a naming convention like ‘FAV_lava-planet’ when claiming it, or to place a base computer somewhere on that planet. Both methods technically work, but then I end up with a bunch of unused bases clogging up the teleporter UI.

Instead, why not add a ‘pin to favourites’ tag in the planet discoveries page?

Visit a planet you like, but don’t want to use clunky naming conventions or base computers? Just select the planet you want in the discoveries tab, and press the ‘add to favourites’ button. Then you can scroll over to the ‘favourites’ tab abd view all your most-loved planets in one convenient list, along with their teleport coordinates, or even the teleport shortcut for the nearest space station.
