I was looking at the ICON bar today and it occured to me that there were Icons on the bar that I did not recogonize. I opened the HTML manual, but it did not have them listed. I would like to know what they are so here ya go.

Re: Status Icons

That is "use component", unknown, "Use Facility" (not used in game AFAIK), and replay of selected ship's movement (I think maybe)

Read across/then down.

Re: Status Icons

Assuming you mean the red boxxed ones..

Top row left to right:
"use" item (emergency propulsion or supply pod, UNUSED

Second row left to right
[not sure, someone else will know answer], play movement log for all ships (simultaneous games)

Slick.

Re: Status Icons

The button on the bottom right is actually "play movement log for all ships"

EDIT: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif read SJ's and not Slinky

That button is evil incarnate. Never press it unless you have a few hours to kill. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I click on a empty system and like magic it is over. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Similarly in a battle replay, just click on an empty spot away from the battle.

EDIT: Ooops, I could be wrong about the bottom right button. It works with the other buttons.

That doesn't work with the show log of all ships button. What it does is systematically go through every ship you own and show its movement log. I have tried getting out of it, but the only things possible are waiting it out and ctrl + alt + del.

And in regards to your edit, yeah, you are wrong about the show for all ships button. It is indeed evil incarnate. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Status Icons
