Re: UI improvement suggestions

My kingdom for a more clear representation of (O)HQ assignments, as a toggle-able overlay. When the fighting gets heavy, telling the difference between a blue-colored and purple-colored subordinate units can be a real mess, requiring clicking on several individual units.

RE: Tank Design Calculator

this is SO good. Thank you, I feel like unit design is such an arcane art where the inputs vs the outcomes are so very distanced. I can't imagine the amount of work that went into this, and I thank each of you (Clux, DTurtle, and Orange Devil) who helped with it.

RE: Colours of empires hard to distinguish

It's a tough thing, for sure.&nbsp; Some of the colors don't show up very well on the galaxy backdrop, I've found.&nbsp; That coupled with the fact it's sometimes tough to distinguish red from dark red makes the main map a total mess at times, depending on who your neighbors are.

RE: Latest Update Information

Excellent news, I can live without general mass retrofitting for a while so long as fleets have a retrofit option, as the pirate/monster patrol frigates are a dime a dozen : )

RE: Please explain movement range to me

<t> I'm not certain why, but I too noticed that the range circle didnt seem to be appreciably smaller.&nbsp; Also that the edge of the circle didnt seem to mean 100% fuel use.&nbsp; My guess was that the edge of the circle is 50% of a full tank of fuel, possibly a little less than that, indicating ...
