Alert to neighbors for space launches

Some sort of notification when your neighbors start a space launch would be helpful.

Maybe where the ZZZzzzzs are for none active players, put one of three icons for a rocket launch in progress. Not like players could be inactive and launching rockets at the same time.

Or even simply showing the rocket on the pad when you visit a neighbor would be nice too. Then if you click on the pad a dialog box could come up with "Want to join the launch Y/N" Just some thoughts.

a good idea.
Maybe it is time in general to work on the space launch. More destinations (Mars? , SpaceStation? ,....). And also clear indicators which launch is active for the friends to know which launch they can join. Green - Blue - Red - the colours are already in use.Should be not so difficult to create a coloured item. For Mars (preferable red, but already in use) brown? for space station: silver? only to give some ideas ;-)

Sounds like a good idea but I can see an issue

Soma launches go in seconds, so if you saw an icon saying a neighbor was on a launch but then due to lags in internet connections once you clicked to join the launch maybe gone. That happens now, many a time I am sat in the red launch lobby and I go to join the launch and it’s gone

It’s a good idea but could be very difficult to get just right
