The HUD option on the main star map will give you a heads up display of most the data on the current hammer object, if the hammer object is a ship or fighter wing and you are allowed to give orders to it.

The left HUD display let you know that the ship ' s name is USS Dully, it is at the position 2000, 2000 and has the ship ' s log of “ Hello There ” . That is followed by a cargo listing for the ship, damage to the various ship systems, and other ship data.

The right display gives you information on the ship ' s sub space drive, fuel, distances, speed and hyper drive status. You will find at the bottom of the display a list of distances between the currently set way points.

You can use the rainbow speed slider on the far right side to change the ship ' s speed. The red marker next to the rainbow slider lets you know what the current speed setting is. The above ship has its speed set at maximum speed, 13 LY a turn.
