F5 screen ornamented by BGS

This screen is accessible both while docked and in flight. It gives you information about your ship.

• If your ship is damaged, this screen is where the details are shown.

Key-commands

This screen is primarily an information screen, rather than one where you make decisions.

• The "Left & Right Arrow keys" navigate between the equipment items with which your ship is supplied.
• Pressing the F5 button takes you on to your Ship's Manifest with details of cargo & missions

Equipment List

The order here is not obvious. Lasers go at the end. Damaged items are moved to the top of the list and coloured to show their status.

• Your missiles and bombs are not listed here
• If you are using LMSS then your currently unselected lasers will be shown on the next F5F5 screen.

See Default order of equipment on F5 (2013-14) for a discussion on this.

List Reordering OXP

Phkb has created an oxp which reorders this list under blue section headings: Loadout by Category

Missile Summary OXP

This oxp adds a list of your current varieties of missiles & bombs to this screen

Changing the screen

• BGS 2.5.1 provides an overlay displaying the F5 data within a monitor and against a backdrop of a ship's bridge
  
• XenonUI provides an on-screen reference list of key commands for this and the other F3-F8 screens
• Docked HUDs removes your HUD from the bottom of the screen, leaving only the fuel bar & missile display. Some of the more recent HUDs do this automatically.

Putting some of this in an MFD

• Useful MFDs puts a lot of this information in two MFDs in your F1-F4 in-flight viewscreens.

• The "Left & Right Arrow keys" navigate between the pages of the screen in the unlikely event that you have more than the one!
• Pressing the F5 button again takes you back to your commander "jameson": details screen

Changing the screen

OXP listings

You will find that a number of things which you might expect to appear on the F5 equipment screen appear here instead.

• LMSS alternative lasers. The lasers uppermost and ready for use in each mounting appear at the end of the F5 screen listing. The secondary unused lasers appear here instead.
• IronHide armour. The status of that armour is shown on this screen (see the screen shot to the right).
• Repair Bots: the number of charges is also listed on this screen.

You will also find reputations listed here too.

• Display Reputation publishes one's delivery contract reputation on this screen (cargo, parcels & passengers).
• Towbar publishes one's salvaging reputation here - or if not, a nag to buy a towbar!
• Market Observer publishes one's trading reputation here
• Explorers' Club publishes one's explorational reputation here too.
• BountyStatus OXP adds your bounty status and amount to the "missions" section on this screen.
