So understandably STO sometimes has a grouping of maps you can enter off the galaxy map. The perfect example is Bajor, Ds9 and the wormhole. 3 maps so close together it's hard to click on them using the map. And really that's not broken, or anything to complain about. But I do have a suggestion.

Why not borrow an idea from Android OS. I've seen lots of uses of 'folders' that expand to display multiple icons for apps you can click on.
Maybe the STO map could continue to appear as it does on the map currently, until you click on it, when it could expand those 3 locations in a sort of menu, or could zoom in super close to give greater distance between the three.

Maybe a tweak worth thinking about when you're not making way more awesome things like t6 ship tfo promotions (cause that's way cooler than the menu thing right now anyway)

But if someone gets bored and has the time it could be a cool little map feature one day maybe?

A visual example of what I think would be cool about this already exists from generations.

Check out how the map zooms in and expands to reveal tighter systems you wouldn't have otherwise seen on the map:
