Bug : no "path lines".

[trooper]

On an new install (with w2k), when I choose a destination for a ship, the path line is not shown (very, very annoying...). Any solution ?

I'll have to test that, thanks. If it's true, I wonder why this F%#$*in' setting has been chosen by default...

It is common to suggest turning off this function if SE4 runs slowly on a computer, for whatever reason. So I may have been turned off in the latest patch.

I know I would never want to be without this function myself, but to each his own.

In pre-Win XP days, I left the CD in my CD/DVD drive. I kinda liked the atmospheric music. But now, XP causes the game to poll both my DVD player and the cheap CD-Burner I bought for backups, and the slow spinup time pauses the game -- drives me insane.

The "show warp lines" option affect the links between the systems in the galaxy display, not the ship direction in the system screen ! so my pb remains...
