Default Re: how use movement log properly

Did you click on the "play movement log for all ships" button? This is a very poorly designed aspect, since it does exactly what it says, shows the movement log once for every single ship.

If you just use the normal "show movement log" button, the game will just run through the 30 day sequence once, for the system you are currently viewing. If you use the stepped movement log button, it will show only one day worth of movement. You can thing go and examine everything you wish for that day, as well as view other systems. Then hit the stepped button again and the next day is run.

Regardless of which option you select, there is no way to stop the movement log without letting it run its full course. If you are doing the stepped log version and wish to stop after the first few days, I find it easier to just hit the "30 day movement log" button (NOT the all ships button) and watch the whole 30 day sequence. It ususally goes faster than hitting the stepped log button as many times as needed to get out of the log.
