Hit the tab key to switch back and forth between modes of underground and aboveground. That definitely needs to be made clear, though!

Yeah. I discovered the underground accidentally while trying to get to the AI War galaxy map at 2am or something back in the 0.8teens. The changes to sonar since then have made the underground easier to stumble onto, but no less confusing.

Maybe there needs to be a toggle button in the UI somewhere so this isn't purely a keyboard thing?

Definitely agreed.

Good Morning! :)

Any suggestions as to where one might put such a button?

On the bottom plate?

Stand alone?

Yep, the bottom plate. It's in the linked issue actually, sorry I didn't duplicate that note here. :)

There are apparently some interesting icons from Heroes of Might and Magic 3 for overworld/underworld that might be some good inspirations.

Yeah, absolutely. :)

So this is something I'll tackle at the same time as I tackle the underground button!

For 0.901:

* Added a toggle-underground-view button to the bottom plate.

Thanks :)
