Default Re: SE V demo Interface

Hey guys, I just spent FRI/SAT playing the demo.

I really like the fresh new look of the UI but that's cosmetic. Since it was a demo It's barely a taste of what I hope the full one will be.

One major suggestion: Give the option for SE4 style system maps (with enhanced animated planets fo course). Reason: I couldn't see anything if a ship was posted there!!!

I prefer the 2D view but had to move my view to see what was underneath it if I forgot from playing and managign my fleets... Please go back to the old icon system that didn't obscure views so much. Or at least give it as an option.

I couldn't see any ground features cause soon as I tried an invasion the game crashed. I had been attacked in space 5-6 times and wanted some payback but not in space. I dunno what teh issure was, my units moved to the planet hex and boom CTD...

Clearly IMHO this is not ready for an October Release. More testing seems to be in order.

BTW has anyone modded the Demo? Just curious...
