Question about the Planetary Summary
« on: August 22, 2010, 09:24:30 am »

Hey there,

I couldn't find a proper description of some aspects of the Planetery Summary. What I would like to ask is:

  • What does the small symbol on the top right of every icon mean? I have encountered a diamond and tripple arrows so far. Does this indicate mobile and stationary objects?
  • What means the colour code if I hover the cursor above the summary (Orange and Green backdrops on icons). I thought it might indicate military and non-military objects but Human Cryogenic Pods and Settlements are marked orange, too.

Thank you :)

The little icon in the top right corner changes to a triple arrow when that unit (or some of them) are in motion. It's the little diamond otherwise. Stationary structures get the little diamond all the time.

I think the backdrops are supposed to be orange for military (anything with a gun) and green for everything else.

However harvester exo-forcefields and the new human cities show up orange, and they aren't armed so I'm not 100% sure.
