In this window, you can view the many different events that have occurred during gameplay. These events are divided into five categories:

  • New
  • Colony
  • Intelligence
  • Resource
  • Military

All significant events are recorded in their respective sections. Until they have been viewed for the first time, these events are also logged in the "New" section. They disappear from this area after being viewed. The sections are described in detail below.

Contents

New

The "New" section displays all events that have not yet been seen by the colony owner. As noted above, these events disappear from the "New" section upon first view. They remain logged in their respective sections.

Colony

"Colony" events relate to the labor and facilities portion of events. When the Food supply reaches the next level and workers are added, this addition will be logged under the "Colony" heading. Also, changes to the types and functions of Outposts are logged here. Finally, building completions will be noted under "Colony".

Intelligence

Incoming and outgoing reconnaissance events are recorded under the "Intelligence" tab. These events include any scans you've done, and any action involing basic and advanced Covert Ops. It also notes any increases in your spy alert and any enemy reconnaissance attempts (see Spies & Covert Ops

Resources

In combination with the Military tab, the "Resource" tab is likely to be one of the most active sections of the Events window. Under this heading, all incursions of resources (Metal, Oil, Energy) aside from those normally gained in a standard tick are recorded. Such events include UFO Bonuses, Voting and Referral Bonuses, Donation Bonuses, and resources gained from scavenging the battlefield and razing Outposts. Lastly, resources given or received in the course of Trading will also be posted in this section.

Military

As the heading implies, "Military" actions are summarized within this section. These events include Battle Report, Conquering and being Conquered, and other related battle info. Minor events like unit build completions will not be recorded.
