What to study

The same colony ledger as the economy tutorial, but framed on the system view instead of the galaxy map: the Stacoun panel shows revenue against corruption losses (19.9%), the happiness breakdown (capital, environment, development, corruption, tax rate), and construction progress, while the selected-planet card at bottom left repeats quality, population, and resources, and the bottom browser steps through the Tenalles system. It shows how the panel system reuses one layout across map zoom levels. Settled frame at about 2:10 in the Two minutes video (Steam); the pipeline scene-change frame at 2:11 is the same shot mid-fade and was not used.
