On this page you will find all sorts of things that you see when playing SubSpace, for example your radar, status bar, frequency and flag count. I tried to make this as complete as possible, but It's very well possible that I missed something. If you are looking for something, and you can't find it here, then tell me!

Click on the icons to see more info.



radar_thumb.gif (660 bytes) This is a small version of your radar display. It's located in the lower right corner of your screen, and it displays the area around you. It tells you the location of nearby teammates, enemies, powerups and the like.


This your status panel. It is located in the top right corner of your screen, and it gives you information of your current energy level, frequency, current bounty, amount of flags you are carrying, and the amount of flags your team posesses. It's something you should look at often, especially when playing flag games. statuspanel.gif (3,073 bytes)


nrgbar.gif (508 bytes) This is your energy bar. It's located at the top center of your screen. It shows you your current energy level and your maximum energy level. It also warns you if your energy level gets dangerously low.


This is a wormhole. A wormhole is a large source of gravity, and it will pull all ships and bombs towards itself. When a ship is caught in a wormhole, it will respawn on a random spot somewhere on the map with zero energy. wormhole.gif (26,807 bytes)

These are doors. When closed, they are just like walls, and they block your way. When opened, they just disappear, and you can move on normally. Doors are used mainly to make bases easier to defend. They are almost always animated, which makes them easy to recognize.
