The new ship-stack icon

July 30, 2007 9:45 AM from

I hate to complain (and this isnt really a complaint) at all about what is an improvemnet to the game, but (thers always a but), as much as i like the icon for stacked ships I just wish that it was set up that if the ships are at a star base then the starbase will be what is Always shown. I see a couple of ships and i keep losing where all my starbases are. I actually have 2 economy starbases next to eachother because i forgot the first one was there until i went to move the ships that were on the first one.

So again, great addition to the game but can it be fixed for next time so that starbases govern whats shown on the screen?

I disagree. I prefer to see the ships, because I dont have ships at every starbase, and I like to know where my fleets are at a glance. Starbases dont move, so I dont have trouble keeping track of them. Maybe there could be a display option where you could choose one or the other.

BAHHHH your foiling my plans!!! ok i do see your point. i guess cause i usually have a small fleet at the bases (usually obsolete tinies or smalls) and i can see if there are ships present by the number of ships in the fleet still visible when the starbase is shown.

I guess I just need to get used to this since its my first game with the updates.
