Description:
All shipyards known by the player are assembled in one menu with information on the construction of large ships and with the possibility of communication.
The menu has two modes:
1. Large shipyards
2. Small shipyards
Switching between modes - button '1'.
You can find this menu in the Navigation menu (Enter - 4 - 6 by default):
For legacy menu - use Enter - 6 - 4
Information provided:
Shipyard section:
Expand button | Shipyard name | Shipyard location | Icons of ships under construction (up to 3)
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
If the shipyard is hostile - it's name will be red. If playerowned - it will be green (the mod is ready to support of the playerowned shipyards mods.).
If for a complete construction at least one ship does not have enough resources, then after shipyard location name you'll see the red warning 'Resources!':
Please note: this does not mean that the construction of this ship has already stopped.
Green ship icon means that this ship is constructing for the player.
If the construction of the ship is already stopped, then icon become red. Or it will flash red/green for playerowned ships.
Shiptrader row:
Ships class | Trader name | Ship under construction | Progress
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
If the shiptrader is hostile - the name will be red. If playerowned - green.
If there are not enough resources, the inscription before the ship's name will turn red.
If the construction of the ship is already stopped, then the progress will turn red.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
In the small shipyards mode, a significant part of the descriptive information is not provided, since ships are not built by order at these shipyards, but are manufactured.
