Hi guys,

Is there a way to check what resources are located on my planets? I seem to remember this as an option discussed earlier on but am still trying to locate where to go.

With thanks.

Hi dawilko. To find the resources available on one of your colonies you only need to look as far as the info panel in the lower left of the screen.

To find the resources of a planet you haven't colonised yet, you need to send an exploration ship to explore and survey the planet.

You can also use the expansion planner (one of the buttons on the top left of the screen) to view detailed info about available resources.

If you want to go further and check cargo, you can do so by selecting the planet/spaceport/ship and doubleclicking anywhere in the info panel. This will open a window with a number of tabs. The far left tab is labelled 'cargo' and will list the current stock of resources for that colony/spaceport/ship.

Thanks Igrad, the ability to check cargo levels on planets to ensure they are growing at their max rate (10 luxuries) is what I have been searching for. Double clicking on the info panel! I should of thought of that! Thanks again.
