The control panel

The panel reports; it does not command. Nothing on the screen is clickable, and the set is driven over the Values bus instead. The one exception is the emergency stop.

The three lamps

Lamp Solid Flashing
Red Switch is in STOP A shutdown is latched
Amber AUTO selected Waiting out the start delay
Green Running and up to speed Cranking or warming up (fast), cooling down (slow)

Reading the screen in game

The LCD is about half a stud wide, so it is unreadable from where you would normally stand.

  1. Click the glass door in front of the panel. The camera pulls in to frame the whole control panel, screen and lamps together.
  2. To come back out, press E, click the on-screen button, or click the screen again. Walking away also exits.

Note

The door pane is only a camera move. It changes nothing on the set.

What each screen and page shows is covered in The screen.
