UI Basics - Main Menu

This guide shows the options available within the user interface "main menu". This map shows the simplisity and short commings of the system. This map can be used as a reference for modding a better user interface or reference while playing the game.

Purpose and General Information

I created this flowchart for myself or the community to use in a future UI Modding project to improve the UI functionality of this game. Currently this I cannot start a project like this due to the lack of documentation for modding this game, the current information that is available at the time of this writting involves XML save game editing and minor visual changes to the game.

About the Main Menu

The main menu is the primary way to access all information about your ship, assets, and other activities in the X-Rebirth Universe. The default hotkey to access this menu is the Enter key.

As a note this map does not contain the "Back" menu item. However items that you cannot back out of are repesented by a dashed arrow (Sorry for not putting this in the legend). Functionally the "Back" button works similarly to a browser back key and will return you to your previous menu all the way back to the beginning.

Missing Items

At this stage of the game I have not been able to sucessfuly build a station so those items are not part of this iteration. There may be a few items missing items, the game continually crashed while I was creating this map. If you seen anything besides the Station Details missing please post a comment below and ill try to add them in at a future date (or never).

Exceptions

• The only case that "Work Here" is not available is onboard the Captured Capital Ship during the campaign. - Possible Bug
  
• Call Pilot / Captain are condenced to save space and keep redability. The New Orders command is not available on ships(pilot) without a jump drive.

Needs improvement. But a good idea.

you know even though that is a mess i must admit that most every npc in the game can really on do one thing. which seems to me a waste. engineers should be able to do alot more than repair. captains too.
