I can’t really see which one is my next route because it’s light yellow instead of white.

Could we have it another color or an option to select it? Maybe based on theme or make it part of the overview coloring scheme?

Would probably help if the entire row was yellow and not just the icon.

Yup, definitely needs to be changed.

Especially in some area’s of space it’s very tough to see the highlighted icon.

+1. Maybe have it use the highlight color set in the UI? (same as for the scanner window)

Always voting for usability.

If for no other reason than to prevent threads like these to descend into obscurity, like what happened to this one, too, whose OP asked for the same or similar thing but where it didn’t manage to gain enough traction to remain active before this new thread here spawned:

For example what if I want the next gate in line to appear as green instead of yellow. The closest thing I have found is using colorblind mode to eliminate yellow, but of course that changes everything. The plus side it it makes my next gate a really easy to see baby blue. There are settings in the overview that do chan…

I have suggested this before. Likely a single entry in a database or line of code to make the change.

This was one of the issues when I first started that made it a bit frustrating for me as well. When you select a destination, it marks the stargate in that yellow color that is just too difficult to see, it needs some better contrast or highlighting(?) Something, anything. Of course, after you make the first stargate jump, then the rest of the stargates you will jump through will be automatically selected, which just makes them easy to see instantly.

This doesn’t necessarily happen when you are using ansiblexes.
