I'm sure that this has been requested before but since I haven't seen that post I'll request it now.
What we need is a tab in the datapad that shows us the planet and coordinates of our currently used lots. Recently I had a lost extractor on naboo, I knew it was there somewhere but as I had mistakenly deleted the waypoint and forgotten where exactly I had placed it I couldn't find it till it started to decay. Hence the request.
Anyone alse agree?

Great idea! I have never lost a waypoint (/knock on wood), but I have read numerous posts from people who have, and this idea seems to make perfect sense.

At the very least, it would be nice if the email you get when you build the item lists the waypoint. I dont know if this is possible though.

How about some sort of command like /findStructures that would generate waypoints to every building, factory, or harvester that you owned.

That would be so sweet speacially for crafters and the ppl who mine as a buisness, as 1 lost or shall we say misplaced harvie is devastating

I like the sound of that, makes it even easier.

I'm surprised it wasn't included from the beginning. Lots are extremely important to crafters and loosing just one of them for a small amount of time can be a great burden. I thought about posting this a bunch of times but just never got around to it. 5 stars!

a poi style tab would be good that updates when you put structures down would be realy nice cause they wouldnt all get mixed in with all your other wp's.

The Lot tab idea is a good one. It wouldalso help keep the Waypoint tab a little bit less cluttered.

When you place any structure a waypoint to it is placed in your datapad automatically.
{You can then name it same as any WP for reminder of what it really is,
I myself color code them for who owns them}
While I understand folks don't thinkbefore theydelete,
If you cannot track the 10 lots you have, a tab won't help you.
The /findstructure does seem a good idea to help those who are delete happy.
Can see useing this same as find, it opens a window and you select the structure from it , it then creates and activates a WPmarker to it.

Unfortunately it doesn't generate a WP for you if you obtain the structure by the /transferStructure command.
