Summary0021704: Galaxy Map - Don't center the map everytime you open it
DescriptionWhen you press TAB, the Galaxy map opens.
Everytime you open it, the map is centered on the current's system.

I like to have the Galaxy map positioned in a way I can see everything and easily move my troops.
The fact that it moves automatically everytime I open it gets confusing, and I have to move it again to fetch my units.

Eventually near the end game, I will want to see the whole galaxy, but as soon as you switch view, the galaxy is centered on a "pseudo-random" system, and gets outside of my screen.

Thanks!

* After the first time the game is switched to the galaxy map (after you load a savegame fresh or start a new game), the game no longer will recenter the galaxy map without your permission just because you switched modes. Aka, you can set up a nice view of the map framing whatever it is you want to frame, and hop in and out of planets without that getting messed up.
** It's amazing how much this improves the feel of the galaxy map, frankly.
