Milky Way

Summary

Screenshot of the Milky Way screen, which resembles the actual Milky Way galaxy, with spiraling arms of stars. Top center are some overall Dyson Sphere and power generation statistics.

The Milky Way is a leader board, conceptually linking star clusters to our actual galaxy. The feature was added in Patch 0.7.18.6914, and displays Total Number of Dyson Spheres constructed by all players, their combined power generation, and the total number of solar sails.

The player's own games will be identified with their name and an indicator circle, based on their games' cluster address. Each player who plays the same cluster address (seemingly commingling the last address segment) is ranked for the one star on the galaxy.

The view can be panned and zoomed with standard mouse actions (click and drag, middle mouse wheel).

A card with a specific player name, and their individual contributing statistics to power generation.

Clicking on a star will provide the details of the player with the highest power generation in that specific cluster in a fly-out card (pictured, right).

A list of 10 player names with their power generation and the cluster in which they generated it. Up and to the left is a star rendered semi-realistically.

Double clicking will provide that system's expanded leader board.
