- There will be a two week period available to vote. (May be extended if needed.)
- If the idea wins 80% of the vote, it is sent to the developers who will respond with feedback and the idea will be linked in the ideas passed to developers. If it loses the vote by not attaining more than 79%, it will be moved to the archives. The idea will then be placed on the list of items to not post again.

Proposal: Highlight sectors on the fort map clearly when they are occupied.
Current Workaround: Remembering the area of every single sector.
Details: Either show sector borders on top of people in the sector or highlight a sector when mousing over it so the sector is discernible even if it's full of people. As it is now, you can only see sector borders in squares that are unoccupied.
Abuse Prevention: None
Visual Aids: Not pretty, just an example.
Summary: When all forts were built, this was a minor nuisance. As it is now, where unbuilt forts are defended on the ground inside the fort in sectors choked with defenders, it's extremely difficult to know what sector you're aiming. Even when you have a solid knowledge of the map, it's hard to visualize which frequently results in trying to move diagonally, which means you're trying to move two sectors and can very easily move somewhere you don't want to be. Clearly defined sectors might also prevent people from falling off unbuilt walls while inadvertently trying to move two sectors.
I would just stick it out until all forts are built, but it will be a long time before every small fort is fully built and, until they are all built, attackers will tend to focus on the unbuilt ones.
