RE: [Cosmos2-design] Screen shot

[Ben K. <ben...@it...>]

I will use ship or fleet pictures as per SEIV , each empire has there own
selection ( if they are using a home made one it will use the Generic set if
it is not loaded) . These pictures may shrink to arrows with Zoom but I dont
plan this at this point.

I also plan a Tactical display which will show things like this

Neutral green
Friendly blue
Hostile red

All stars will be simple dots
Stars with colonies will be squares
Stars with colonies and a starbase will be a double concentric square.
Fleets will be shown as 2 concentric open circles. The number of ships will
be in the middle or bottom right.

Civilian ships ( not at a system) will be shown as triangles.

Destoyer class ships wlll be a half open semi circle
Cruiser class ships will be a 3/4 closed circle
Battleship class ships will be a closed circle.

Inside the circle it will show if it is a carrier etc.

This will not be too hard to do and provide a usefull but not great looking
display.

Ben
