I am bad at explaining but i can visualize something like the blue "guideline" (or arrows) in this image

And i simply want to know how this ability is called

It would be different from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apophenia because i can add things and not only see connections/patterns

Its just called imagination as far as I am aware.

Robot confirmed. You need to update your Human Abilities Matrix Table. Humans do not have this feature.

I need more reading comprehension for that XD
But some types sound a bit like my version could be included
Edit: thinking is not seen as a sense so i dont think so. Still very interesting :D
