What to study

A run begins as an outfitting sheet laid over the ship itself, floating in drydock. The hangar gives the whole starting position on one screen: the room grid and its powered systems in the centre, starting weapons as cards (Anti-Bio Beam, Breach 1, Dual Lasers, one slot conspicuously empty), two crew with CUSTOMIZE buttons, the Slug Repair Gel augmentation, and honest negative space, DRONES simply reads SYSTEM NOT INSTALLED, so an absent system is stated, not hidden. Progression lives here too: TYPE A / TYPE B layouts switch the same hull's floor plan, and the Available Achievements panel turns unlocking into a visible contract ('Complete 2/3 to unlock a layout!') with the third icon still padlocked. Even identity is editable, the ship's name, Man of War, sits in a RENAME field, and difficulty (EASY / NORMAL) is chosen at the same desk as the loadout, one START button away from space. Frame at about 0:49 in the FTL Faster Than Light Trailer (Steam), manually extracted at 48.5s: the scene-change pass emitted no frame for the hangar.
