I'm probably an absolute peabrain and this has probably been mentioned before but...
NOTES
I kinda want a "notes" tab on the bottom menu so that I could take down general notes about the world that would be stored with the save data. That's it. This is just so I can take down technical stuff about my colony, as well as provide some kind of "Welcome" message if I share my map with someone else.
For example, if I calculated how long my batteries would take to charge up, I would want to store this information with my save data so that when I come on 3 weeks later, I could recall the value.
EDIT:I wouldn't mind an in-game item like a "sign" or a "plaque" that lets the player write things on it.
OPTIONAL
This is totally optional, but if there could be a very simple in-game calculator that could do basic arithmetic then that would save people a lot of work(not really tbh I just use calc.exe) trying to figure out sums in their head.
What do you guys think?
My idea is to integrate note-taking capability into my analytics mod: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=27521.msg279160#msg279160
which eventually will generate analytics report

I loved what you were doing, and you'd be happy to know that it's one step ahead of what I wanted. My request was something even more simple.
I don't know if this request would take a lot of time/effort to make, logically, simplicity would be proprtional to lines of code, but I don't know much about Modding techniques and language.

I just added simple note taking capability. Just download and install the mod and go to Estimator tab, then Note sub-tab. Your note is saved upon saving, and reload upon restarting your game. I tested it, it works fine, you can try it out and if there's any problem let me know. Other sub-tabs are non-functioning besides Graph sub-tab.
Thanks a lot mugenzebra, that is exactly what I wanted.

You're welcome!
This was a great suggestion, and it's even better because someone has it made already! I've never seen this analytics mod before but it looks great. Thank you both!
