Forwarded Notification when Scouting is Done

[planetofthehumans2]

Reason

The game doesn't notify the player when their scouted sector is finished which leads to delays in progression on the map. The game DOES notify when a space ages ore sector is scouted, but not with the regular scouting on the map. Why not both??

Details

The continent map icon will flash when a sector is done scouting and goes away when the icon is clicked regardless if the user does or doesn't scout the next sector.

Balance

None.

Abuse Prevention

None.

Summary

The game should notify the user that a scouting sector is done.

Have you looked to see if this has already been suggested?

Searched "scouting notification" with no results.

Simple idea hopefully improve quality of life for users.

Last time I checked, this already exists (at least on the app).

There is a setting to enable push notifications when scouting of a sector is completed.

The notification of the app can be pushed down by another notification later. An in game notification or ! sign, like when in space ages an exploration side has been completed, would be an QoL improvement. Imho an great idea

I do get a desktop notification if you have Chrome notifications enabled, I do get notifications about everything this way, trades, AD, messages, and finished productions... but yes it would be nice to have something like a red exclamation on the Continent Map icon when the scout is idle... I guess...

Pretty sure, the map button is blinking when scouting is done.

Pretty sure, the map button is blinking when scouting is done.

Is it? I think it is blinking when exploration site is done in Space ages.

Anyone knows when ideas / suggestions of Augustus with sufficient support like this one, gets forwarded? Ideas/suggestions of last month lacking sufficient support were already rejected. Seems odd that rejection can happen within an month but supported ideas can't be forwarded in double that amount of time.

On my mobile device, I only have the most important notifications turned on, while others I turn off,

However, for a browser version, it would be nice to have such way (popping up on the screen or flashing icon) in letting me know it's done. Even an event in the news would be nice as well.
