Default I hope you have some answers, SJ.

okay, I have been staring at this one for a while and i just cant figure it out.

the best i can come up with is that you image-manipulated it to be snazzy, but i cant figure out why its worth the bother.

at this URL: http://www.geocities.com/hohoho611ca/maps.html#galaxy

you have an image that is from a menu that claims to be the 'Galaxy Map' as if such a thing existed in SE4. that in its self is just sort of neat, and i can understand it being fudged. however, the bottom of the screen reads "(click on a system to set its player notes)" and that is what i cant quite figure out. sure, it could be forged too, but its one of those little 'why bother' kinds of things.

I am fully expecting an answer along the lines of 'because I can' or 'just to screw with your head,' but i thought i would check on the off hand chance that there is some hidden feature or tool that I didnt know about.

heck no, that manual is completely useless, why would i look there for cool features?

but WOW! I had no idea you could do that. that is truely astounding, and all this time i didnt even know it was there. im amazed. im going to start using it now, just because I can. swell.

man, that was the Last thing I expected. I was really planning on hearing an answer along the lines of "yes, i created a custom game console for my story line because im cooler than you are." and that would have been okay too.. but WOW. ..and i never even knew about it...

THANKS.

Jeepers, don't scare me like that. I thought you had uncovered a huge bug in my mod or something!

All I did was take the system map (as described below) via screenshot, then I went into the politics map and painted the colors in to match the races that claimed them.
