New sector space

Hi,

I've played a bit at release and am back for season 3. I've tried searching, but apparently this forum will search for "sector space" as separate words instead of a sentence, and these words are in almost every post.

I read a lot about the revamp of the sector space, allegedly it was supposed to have been totally rewritten. But to me it seems exactly the same. OK, the background color has changed and there are no more space traffic lanes, but that's all the differences I am seeing.

To me, a "revamp" would include a change of purpose or function, or totally new abilities. For instance, when Picard says "plot a course to so-and-so", he does not add "first to this sector border, then wake me up so I tell you to which other border to fly", and so on. But I didn't find anything of the sort.

Am I missing something? What exactly is new besides the background ( the color and astrometrics)?

    There is pretty much nothing else, its a graphical overhaul, it still works exactly how it did before it just looks more awesome.

    thats not to say more stuff is not coming eventually. i know they want to get rid of the sector borders and have one giant space eventually. i suspect other improvements will happen over time.
