I know it's not done yet, but would be good to include: # of turns played Stardate at Death / length of service as captain Ship Type(s) commanded Xeno ship encounters / wins Achievements Accomplished in this game Game Difficulty Maybe others can include other data that would be cool to look back on as a game post-mordem

Tracked this under #STF-3703 Anytime you see that tan-metal, it should scream "not done"

I want to expand on this original request for more info. The current In Memoriam screen is rather bland. It's basically just a stats printout of # of times each activity was done. All the things that would make that particular Captain stand out are missing. I'm thinking of something along the lines of the Sid Meier's Pirates retirement screen of stats and achievements. The following is what I'd like to see eventually added, some can possibly be on another tab if you want to keep it separate. Not just for bragging rights, but also helpful when doing post-run analysis, comparing between builds, or seeing which Story branches were or weren't explored. - Summary statement of how long the Captain has been flying for, name of the ship (and number of other ships owned), and how he died (e.g. was executed after defeat in ship combat by a XX Faction Bounty Hunter)
- Summary statement briefly going over my degree of involvement in key Story Events. e.g. I helped avenge Valencia Faen's death by killing Aerlus Char during a Duel of Assassins. I supported the establishment of the United Coalition by helping Arbitor Brokstrom secure supporters. I chose to remain neutral in the Hunna starport attack ordeal, etc.
- Text list of all the Captain's job levels and chosen Talents
- Text list of all the Officer's job levels and chosen Talents
- Text list of Ship dice pools (available/required) for all categories
- Name and class of last ship flown, with text list of installed modules
- Number and total value of Prize Ships seized
- Total amount of profit made from Trading/Smuggling (this is a more useful metric, since you can get a "profitable trade" just by selling 1 Scrap, but it's not worth anything)
- Amount of credits in the bank and base value of goods in stashes
- Number of Contacts with whom I had positive Personal Rep (this is a better measurement of how many Contact I made use of, or rather, were made use of by )
- Long requested since the days of STRPG, number of Xeno ship combats encountered/won
- number of Xeno crew combats encountered/won
You could also have a small graphical table showing the ties to each Faction, like Faction Flag
| Military Ranks
| Trade Permits
| Edicts | Faction Rep
| Thulun | Icon and Rank name (11) | Icon for Principal Trader (4) | Icon for Deathrose (9) | 481 | Cadar | Icon and Rank name (3) | Icon for Spice Trader (1) | Icon for a nobody (0) | 36 | Steel Song
| Icon and name for a nobody (0) | Icon for a nobody (0) | Icon for a nobody (0) | -347 |
etc. If icons are too much work, maybe just have a single icon per category, and just palette-shift the higher up you go. --- Yes, I totally understand that this may be beyond the scope and none of this might make it, but it would be nice... eventually.
