Pirate Intelligence Panel
Forged Space’s primary combat is done when visiting Pirate Hideouts. Generally, you should find a minimum of three Hideouts per system. These are generated at random, but the content of the hideout will reflect the average law level of the system.
The panel, as shown below, is located on the right-hand side of the main navigation screen. It can be minimised, and when done, it sits as a red icon to the side of the mini map. Click the icon to bring it back to its full size. This panel is scrollable.
You can see from this image that the panel has a small minus element in the top right. This will cause the panel to minimise.
Locating the Pirate Hideout.
From the panel, you can see it has not only data on the hideout but also a small directional arrow to the left of the name. This is an indicator of the ‘Direction’ you need to travel. Point your ship towards the arrow and travel until you arrive at the location. As you move around the map, the arrows update in near real time.
Pirate Hideout ‘Info Panel’
When you get close enough to the hideout, you will see the ‘Info Panel’ appear, giving you the pertinent data on the Hideout. Remember, hideouts are a global event, and others may already be attacking the hideout.
Pirate Hideouts do not appear on the Mini Map, and they are not listed on the Navigation Console. (that would be too easy) đŸ™‚
