SE5 Demo Bug Reports & Annoyances/Requests

In 3D mode I used mouse wheel to scroll/zoom all the way out. Now the top portion of the system grid is cut off and vanished untill I zoom in a little. The vanished portion goes down to where system modifiers text ends.

In Research: Some "Current Level:1" Technologies show "expected results" of what will be next while others show what I already have.

Examples: Light Hull Construction shows "expected results" shows what I have. Construction shows what is expected (fighters and mines). Perhaps this should show level 0?I have Rock Colonization 1(it shows "expected results"? why?) but I can still spend on this. Why?

Research sreen needs a complete overhaul.

It's not a bug. Ships and colonization have tech levels in SE:V. Although the little pics should show what level the expectant result is to avoid confusion.

OK. That explains the colonization techs but the other examples still need to be adressed. Many to list. Just look through the research screen using the search criteria I have mentioned.

I'm not sure what other areas are showing problems? Aside from the pic not showing the level number (although a right click on the research area will show you) what is the problem?

Ok. Thanks Kwok. My bad. I'm not even that much of a newbie and this confused me a little.

I'm curious how many levels to the same hull and units works; such as Frigate,Colony Sip, and Small Freighter.It sounds neat. Must be like size and weight and cost and the such.

Any way, yes, like you say Kwok, it REALLY needs to show the level in "Expected Results". Especially for new players/customers.

The ship hulls increase in size with higher tech levels. Stock does it haphazardly but oh well. It's a nice feature though.

Yeah, I wasn't thinking very clearly. Now I use the mosewheel to get a good angle, and then move the mouse "down" to back out the view until you see the whole system.
