◎ The command corner

Bottom left, a radar of your star system: your world at the centre, the dashed ring is the edge of your sensors, worlds show in their faction's colour (a red ring marks a grudge), raids come in as red blips with a countdown along a dotted line, your fleets and probes are cyan. Hover a blip for its name; click a world to open its sheet, click open space to open the Map. Without a Neutrino Observatory the radar shows only what is already coming at you.

• Round the radar sit five dials: ATLAS (Y), Politics (3), Council (K), Deep space (J) and Comms (4), with badges for what needs you. The ⋯ chip opens them as a list with a status line each; the game remembers which you prefer.
• ATLAS opens beside the corner. Esc closes it.
• Every building, squad, wing, vehicle, deposit and anomaly panel has 🔎 Zoom in: the camera glides to it and settles close. Pan or scroll to take over.
