The PA user interface is web based using an in-game browser provided by Coherent UI 2 that interacts with the PA engine.
Each HTML page is loaded as a scene under the following fixed hierarchy:
- main
- game > start, server_browser, etc
- uberbar
Each scene can also load other scenes as panels (similar to an iFrame).
eg the game and uberbar scenes are loaded as panels by main.
The game scene defaults to the start scene and this changes as the user navigates between the following: (listed in alphabetical order)
- armory
- planets
- community_mods (NEW)
- connect_to_game
- galactic_war
- game_over (loaded by live_game so technically should be under live_game)
- gamestats (loaded by live_game so technically should be under live_game)
- guide
- leaderboard
- live_game
- load_planet
- match_making
- new_game
- replay_browser
- replay_loading
- save_game_browser
- server_browser
- settings
- social (unused)
- start
- system_editor
- transit
