Overview

The event log tells you everything that happened in your empire during the last time increment.

  • It will also tell you how long that time increment was, in case breaking events caused the game to advance less time than you'd ordered. You can open this window at any time via Ctrl+F3 or by using the Events button on the System Map Icon Bar.

Controls

Empire Selection

This pull down selector allows those in Space Master mode to review the events of any Empire in the game. Those mere mortals not using Space Master mode will be restricted to seeing only those events within their own empires.

Number of Messages to Display

The 200 most recent messages are shown in the event log by default but users may elect to see as many as 2000 (Need verification) by changing this limit.

View

This section allows you temporarily limit the messages shown to:

  • Normal - All messages are shown
  • Combat - Messages are limited to only those flagged as combat messages. (No Promotions or Shipyard Expansion Completions, etc are shown)
  • Firing/Damage Only - an even more restrictive view for use in the heat of combat

Default Colors

The Event Log starts in monochrome mode. Clicking this button once will establish some basic background and text colors that make locating things in the log easier. Of course, if the default color scheme doesn't appeal, one may elect to change the way various classes of messages are displayed by simply clicking on a message of the type that you'd like to change and using the BG Color (background color) and Text Color buttons at the bottom of the screen.

Research Only

Ticking this box will limit the events shown to Research Completed and Research Begun Messages.
