Basics

This guide will tell you how to correctly configure your overview. Use the pictures below, the Filters tab will be described later.

These setting are common across all your overview presets.

Filters

These let you customise what appears on your overview. You really only want to see things that you want to shoot here. For most of your settings, you want to use the attached filter states setup.

The types tab is used to decide what objects in space appear on the overview. After each patch, you need to re-check the types tab to make sure every ship type is selected. Sometimes new categories are added, and ships don't appear, resulting in much confusion when you get shot by a ship you can't see.

Check the following posts for Filter Type settings.

To save your filters, click the arrow, then press "Save Оvеrview Settings as...", type in a name, and press ok.
