Adding the lines to the ANA modes would break this feature

which lets you place regions or trade routes onto the map through planetinfo (or, now that interstellar is writable by JS, I suppose you could also prepare/display them in script)

I've added an extra chart_labelreachable_color property to gui-settings.plist for those who want to vary it that way.

Currently it's just more options. Which is good :D . You can have the circle or lines or both. Whatever you prefer. Differently colored reachable system names would complement the lines nicely.
i meant if the system names you can reach are a different colour to the rest of the map then lines and circles are redundant. but hey why not have all 3 options on? just not a fan of the blue to red line. i would rather a solid colour but i can always edit that.

I made a little oxp awhile ago: https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=17321.
