Hi all,

I just got back into my first game of Stars! in a couple of years Smile (as a player, anyway, I'd been hosting a few). Now I've been running Stars! under Wine in Linux before in a large game and I don't remember having the problems I'm seeing in this game:

1. Fleets don't show up in the map pane unless I click on them (by guessing where they are, really, or using the fleet report)

2. Fleet waypoints only show when a fleet is selected. No other fleet's waypoints are displayed.

This is already not so nice when planning my scouting, but I suppose it will get really bad when I need to coordinate war-fleets Mad !

I know all the pane options (and yes, I did select to display all those designs, waypoints etc) so that's not the issue. I'm using unmanaged windows in Wine build 20020804 under a 2.4.19 kernel.

Is this something we have to live with under Wine (I can't remember it being so bad though), or does someone have experience or just ideas even for fixing this?
