Flags not showing on Galactic Map
« on: April 12, 2012, 04:24:16 AM »
I have a folder called "Flags" in the main Aurora folder which contains all the flag jpg files. I also have the "show race control" flag box ticked in the Galactic display menu. However I have yet to see any
flag icons on the Galactic Map. Can anyone advise why the race flags are not showing?

Same here.
Fun Fact: The minimum engine power of any ship engine in Aurora C# is 0.01. The maximum is 120000!

You have to set the controling race yourself

In the Galactic Map, Main Tab, there are several drop-down menues. The first reads "Control Empire" There you can assign a race to the selected system

Your own flag doesn't show on the Galactic map. Any system without a flag is either yours or unclaimed.

Would it be possible to change this so that it does show our flag? It would make it easier to see the edges where our claimed space borders unclaimed/contested systems.

In Display -> Other, you can turn on Show Race Control Flag / Colour. Turn color on, then manually unclaim every system you don't actually want.

I know that Old Controlling Race or whatever it's called in the galactic map isn't saved when the window is closed.
