Symbols in short range map?

Post by bulrush »

I have: Oolite 1.65 for Windows/PC.

I've seen a screenshot where in the short range map there were 3 symbols per planet. Is this a feature in the 1.65 PC version? If so, how do I activate it?

Hold down the I key. The symbols stand for Govenment and Economy with a number for Tech Level.

Thank you. Is this documented in the WIKI page where they list all the keys?

EDIT: This does not appear to be documented in http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Oolite ... d_Controls . 'i' currently says "inject fuel". So do I use capital "I" when I'm in the short range (F6) map?

And in the ReadMe-file that comes conveniently and completely free with your Oolite 1.65.

Please read the ReadMe, before you start the program. It is there for a purpose. And it is named ReadMe, so that you read it!

Translating: although this may be The Friendliest Board This Side Of Riedquat, and we gladly answer noob questions, there are limits, and you're starting to get on some sentients' nerves...

I don't know what you're trying to do, if you're thinking of taking all these answers you got and wikify them or if it's just post whoring to increase the count, but it is getting a bit tiresome.

No hard feelings, eh? :roll:
You know those who, having been mugged and stabbed, fired, dog run over, house burned down, wife eloped with best friend, daughters becoming prostitutes and their countries invaded - still say that "all is well"?
I'm obviously not one of them.
