Summary0019207: Include "description" in bottom left menu (and already has a fix)
DescriptionI think it would be useful to show the Description field from GameEntity for any hovered entity. There are some (the structures that convert between resources on a player planet, like Auxiliary mine) that I always get confused.

This code in Window_InGameBottomLeftInfo.cs should provide it:
                         buffer.Add( relatedEntity.Side.WorldSide.TeamColor.InternalName );
                         buffer.Add( ")" );
                         buffer.Add( "\n" ).Add( relatedEntity.WorldLocation.ToString() );
+ if(!relatedEntity.TypeData.Description.Equals( "~*~")) //don't show empty descriptions; ~*~ seems the default for things without descriptions
+ buffer.Add( "\nDescription: " ).Add( relatedEntity.TypeData.Description );
                         if ( relatedEntity.TypeData.Category == GameEntityCategory.Ship )
                         {
                             buffer.Add( "\n" ).Add("Hull: ").Add( relatedEntity.GetCurrentHullPoints() ).Add( "/" ).Add( relatedEntity.TypeData.BalanceStats.HullPoints );
