Hmm, I had tested this and it was working... so far as I know, nothing has changed. It is possible that it is still being overlapped by ships if they are really clustered around it. Holding Ctrl pops it to the front no matter what, though. Also, in all versions it has shown this info on the minimap to start out with (the icon flashing there), but again sometimes that can be obscured by a ton of ships around it. Sounds like the Ctrl holding is the answer, in these newer versions at least. Let me know what you think.
