| Summary | 0013869: Show the calendar and credit above tab selection | ||||
| Description | I pretty much always have the detailed intel tab open unless I'm checking the date or amount of credit so I think it would be better to show them(or the whole basic info tab except inventory, customization and logbook buttons) above the panel(or to the right but I imagine lower resolutions have no room there). | ||||

I went a bit of a different way, but I think it accomplishes what you at core want: * There are never three panels on the solar map anymore, but now the two that do get shown are taller. ** Likewise, on the main panel, there are now only two tabs rather than three, but each one is taller. * The main panel has had its buttons majorly rearranged to put the most-common stuff one click away. ** The "Basic Info" tab now has your logbook (as before), WILL have a new "advisors" button, and then now has the following moved from what used to be on details: federation progress, racial power grid, race relations, and tech progress. ** The "Detailed Info" tab now has your inventory and customize flagship on its top row (previously from the basic info tab, but frankly these are used WAY less frequently than the other things), and then the overlay stuff has been combined into here. * When at a planet or outpost, now instead of having two panels that show planet/outpost details on it on one, and then "local actions" on the other, it just has one column of buttons. * The Federation Progress button no longer shows until you have unlocked the general federation stuff. * The overall effect here is... a bit more information-dense, to be sure. That said, it's also something that is VASTLY more usable if you're actually an even moderately-skilled player, because you don't have to click back and forth all the time between basic and advanced details, which was super irritating. Now you only very rarely need to pop over to detailed info, which is the idea, and the rest of the time you stay on basic info. This also really helps to highlight the information that is truly critical, versus that which is delving a bit more into minutia (or infrequent acts, at least). |
