A View is the general term for any method of viewing relevant objects or data in the game.

Types of Views

Orbital View

This allows you to view a Body System (Celestial Bodies & Systems); a celestial body and its direct child celestial bodies.

Modes of Orbital View

• Orrery View: View a Body System as an orrery composed of each body's real, orbital position.
  • Strategic Mode — For the minimalist in you. Displays objects as a variety of geometric shapes, sorta like an ATC console.
  • Realistic Mode — Displays celestial bodies as scaled-up versions of themselves.
• Arranged View: Best when you're trying to get the gist of some set of data. View a Body System as a side-by-side arrangement, sorted by a chosen set of data, so things like:
  • Average distance from parent celestial body
  • Population
  • Total GDP
  • Presence of a particular resource
  • And more!

Data Toggles of Orbital View

You're able to toggle on and off whether you can view specific bits of data, like:

• Military Units
• Civilian Units
• Orbit Lines
• Asteroids
• Comets

Surface View

This allows you to view a Body Surface; anything that is confined to the surface (or subsurface) of a body.

Modes of Surface View

• Spherical Mode: View the surface of a body as a globe.
