Default Re: Updated the FAQ

here is one... perhaps it was mentioned before.

I noticed this when i was swapping out populations ( different atmospehere types to the proper breathing planets )

When you wish to figure out what planet to send those *______*breathers to.... click on the ship with the ______breathers and then press the 'm' quick key.... now open the colonies window 'f5' and in the general view click on the atmosphere column. ( it is now sorted by atmoshpere.) Then click on the Races View ( menu on the right ) Now each atmosphere type is sorted by atmosphere type and then population size. ( so when you see the number increase you know your on a different atmosphere )

As a bonus. Since you clicked on the ship you can see the current system highlighted on the galaxy map ( if your lucky , usually you have to remember which system it is) and the planet that needs the population transfer in the colonies map ( this way you can determine which planet is closest )

Works like a charm
