replace the empire flags |
there needs to be some method of identifying ownership that is less obscuring then the current empire flags, a good replace ment is to have the flags appear on the actual hex surface(under the object) so it dosn't hide anything behind it, heck even if it dose slice the edges off the current flag graphics it would be a welcome change in my opinion.

Re: replace the empire flags
There are a few mods that provide a set of smaller and less intrusive flags.

The Balance Mod (link below) also uses a set of smaller flags as well.

Interesting... Maybe if the flags are shown in this way, the top down view could become useful!

Re: replace the empire flags
The only downside to those shrunken maps is that when theres something of another race on the same square, say your planet and an ally ship, the ships flag is way above your planets flag, i'm planning to toy with the size of the bitmaps, tho im sure that'll that create plenty of problems.

Re: replace the empire flags
hallelulah to that. The flags are one of the features of SEV that make it look cartoonish to me, along with the beige GUI
