I have started to collect the items and features that use the Function Keys to show information.

I bought the System Scan, F-6 Function key, That works fine. Enter system, hit F-6, then space bar through the list.

From the Humna Humna, I bought the Down Spin trade route, F-7 Function Key. When I hit F-7, nothing happens. Is there some known problem with these keys operating in the Dos Box, or other known situation??

Thanks.

Hello RDouglass1,

I am having the same issue on a Mac. F6 works well, but I cannot get the trade routes to appear OR the Blasto pods to function with F10. Have you found a solution yet? Thanks.

Thanks.

It has been a very long time since I have played. Try going to your Navigator and checking your Starmap while you are in hyperspace, and then press F7.

It will be a few days before I can verify this.

Have the same issue with encounter scan (f5) where it would be useful to have for my voyage it is utterly useless and inopperative

It is used in the Starmap, not in systems or in maneuver mode.

Ditto for the trade route maps and the flux scan.

I got the Encounter Scan to work In Systems, and on the Star Chart through Engineer, as KHHill91 says above.

Trade Route should show on Star Chart Screen, and Flux Scan should work in Both Star Chart, and Local Space mode.
