I've been fiddling with a new interface for the eventual GT2. I figured I'd share some previews!

You can still click and drag, but you can now use mouse scrolling to move around. (Works beautifully with a Mac mouse or pad.) No hitting an edge anymore, either. You can scroll across the entire world.

very nice stuff!

Sweet. I like the mouse over information on the units as well.

Sweet. That's exciting. :)

Will it work with arrow keys as well?

I can definitely add that!

Also, on each world's page it has a list of the 20 largest nations, how many sectors each has, and how many it gained in the past cycle. I think another useful piece of information that could also be displayed is sectors gained per cycle per cycle (per cycle squared). This new number would the rate of change of the growth of each nation. It would show which nations are slowing down and which are steam-rolling ahead.

Just an idea. Let me know what you think.
