Another ridiculous part of the new UI - that window with all the "lock target" and "warp to" stuff just vanished. This is very inconvenient because I have been sat here for hours waiting for wartargets and would hate to automatically click the region where it used to be, only to watch my wartarget warping away as the UI failed to lock him.

Discuss the inconveniences of this new system here. Also, how do i fix it? What?

Look on your right or left tool bar whatever it is called and see if you minimized it by accident.

It will be at the bottom looks like a folder or just a box if I remember correctly.

Nope, it's plum gone.

EDIT: Nevermind. I tried minimising the "Overview" window and found that it had attached itself to overview and then hidden off the side of the screen...

Real men play with the UI off and use hotkeys.

And they hull tank.

The chief problem with that window is that double-clicking any part of it but the buttons will shadow it (fold the window into its titlebar, which you can double-click to unshadow). Normally you only double-click the titlebar to do this.

So you have very spammable buttons like WARP and JUMP, but you're punished for missing them by one pixel.
