| When you fast travel (SHIFT + G) to a barycenter it takes you "on top of" the barycenter as if you were traveling to a planet or moon. It would be nice if you could fast travel to it and it would show you a straight on view at the stars in the system instead of having to flip around to see the system. Just a small tweak but I think it would improve game play. Come to think of it, it would also be nice to have a fast travel feature that would take you right to a planet or star or moon but not on top of it. Something faster than just pressing G. I like the whole spaceship feel but when I'm browsing around stars and planets (and not pretending I'm in a spaceship) it gets cumbersome and it's kind of like having long frequent loading screens in a game. I know I can press (SHIFT +G) but then I have to right myself and wait for the planet to load once I do. Hopefully my suggestions can be put to some use. Thanks SpaceEngineer!

| There is a "fast travel" feature. Press the G key twice (double tap) instead of just once to go to a place quickly. SHIFT + G is used for going to the surface of an object, and CTRL + G is used for going to the center of an object. I hope this helps you.
Alternately, you can also adjust the amount of time it takes to travel using the autopilot in the config files; the default is 20 seconds for G, and 3 seconds for double-G.

| mustafa2812, you should read the new updated user manual and say "thank you" to Robbie - he helps a lot in translation from Russian.
