Are there any plans to include a Galactic Directory; a listing of all the planets that you have visited, their quadrant, faction, economy type and zone stats? This kind of information would be pretty useful when accepting missions or planning long-haul multi-jump trips. There are several times where I have accepted a 1-jump mission and would have scored double if I had known the zone economy that I was visiting so that I could have stocked up on cargo beforehand. It could also help you spot adjacent quadrants that have complementary economies so that you can set up trade routes between them.

Definitely knowing what zone you are being asked to travel to when accepting missions to is on the fixed-for-next or fixed-very-shortly list.
The more detailed in-game resource to help you schedule things -- well, I want one too but not sure how progress on getting one of those is going. I think it is currently labelled 'future development/not critical for game release'.

We're going to keep improving the map system as best we can. Some more basic improvements are needed first -- getting stuff on screen, getting that stuff on screen for Android, etc.

I do feel guilty sometimes. Cory Trese and fallen spend a couple of years feverishly creating a fantastic game and all I do is ask for more!

I think this is the mark of something you already like quite a bit, and just want to make _even better_. So no need for guilt. Just thank fallen and Cory Trese from time to time. And, of course, get everybody you know to buy the game when it is released.

Yes indeed. If I hadn't found the TBs and Templar Assault a few short years ago I would probably still be using my phone as a phone now!

I've started taking notes on planet stats in hopes of turning that into savvy purchases as I start on new missions.

Annotating them with the name of the quadrant is even better. And if the 'hold the power off button and volume' method isn't attractive to you, on android you can use something like this: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdiwebma.screenshot for lollipop and later. Built in label-adder, too.
