Ok i don't know the real name, but the small picture you see of the ships in Nova when you scan them. Can you have those animated i.e so when you scan a Leviathan you see its cargo rings spinning, as with the Manticor. I was just wondering if this is possible with the Nova engine.
Also could you have instead of a number rating of the shields could you have bars like on the main display?
Thanks in advance.

Dammit! I was gonna implement it.
Hang on, didn't the developers think about having flickering target pics? moki showed some pics on the Nova board, and there were flickering pics. Hmmm, maybe you could have movie target pics? Oh well, not number one on my list anyway.

There is a "MovieFile" field in the shďp resource for the shipyard, but there's no equivalent for targeting pictures that I know of.

The post that he showed that in was about features that didn't make it into the game; animated targets would fall into that category (although I wish they had been in the game... I can think of some wonderful ideas for animated targets).

Well, there's always EV4, aka EVOIMAOSSBM (which stands for Escape Velocity: Okay I'm Making Another One So Stop Bugging Me!).
Who knows if it will happen, but it would be nice. I don't think we should start waiting for it though until we've done absolutely everything that can be done with Nova 1000 times first. So git crackin'! I want 10 TCs on my desk by 0800!
