The Main View Screen

The Main View Screen is also the Horizons Program window on the Host Computer. From the Main View Screen, the Host can select the mission for the players to attempt. The Main View Screen will have the mission briefing when you start your mission, and then provide a forward view out of the Horizons. The Communications officer can control the view from a set of camera options, and the Flight and Tactical officers can put their selected target on screen.
