Default Re: Another odd gameplay problem

I'm the guy who has been having strange crash and install problems with SEIV and TDM. After a reinstall and using the rar version of the TDM file I have yet to encounter a gameplay crash.

But I forgot about one other issue that remains even with the re-install. Normally when you move units you get a turn counter that shows the route your ship is taking and how many turns it will take to get there.

Nothing shows for me.

I checked the empire options but nothing there seems to affect it.

Any idea why my route/turn counter doesn't show up? (Ships move normally other than that.)

Finally, I often get a 1-2 second delay in selecting items in the event list and other places in the GUI. I never used to get this problem before. It's not a game breaker but I can't imagine what's causing it.
when installing the game the default for the route lines is disabled. As mentioned else where its in the game options, not the empire options, that one got me when i reinstalled seiv 1.91.
As for the sluggishness, i can only guess, i used t have that problem with large games on my P166 (it was drag, try retrofitting about 2 dozen ships when the check boxes don't respond till about the fifth ship down).
