Weird game option

[Ed Kolis]

I finally noticed that the "Next/Previous button should skip ships under construction" is completely useless - ships under construction do not appear on the map!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Either that's a leftover from SE3, or it means "Ships which are constructing something" as in busy spaceyard ships, since they don't have any orders and would otherwise be considered "idle"

well, I just tested it. with that selection made, the next button still stops on my "porta-builder". so it's not used for that.

There are lots of leftover things from se3 in se4. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Found that out when I couldn't find a ship. It was in a fleet being repaired
