another idea for loading screen
Or for a campaign, a 2d starmap showing where the current mission is taking place and perhaps the general status of other systems (friendly/contested/enemy), so you can tell who's winning the war.

Now that's a good idea! :yes:
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.

I second that. Who wants to create a generic starmap file type? :D

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I always have that information somewhere in my briefings anyway. :D

I changed around the loading screen for PI a long time ago but it is more or less the same thing as the normal one, just with the campaign title slapped on and a PCA logo in the background. This custom loading screen thing could be a very neat extra. :yes:
