Steps #5 and #7 distinguish anyone you can legally attack from war targets, since allies can sometimes appear as low security status/criminals/suspects (formerly outlaws). With the above settings, orange ﬂashy, yellow flashy and ~~the traditional~~ red ﬂashy are shootable targets - you won’t get CONCORDed if you ﬁre upon them.

War targets, those in an engagement with you, those with security status below -5, criminals and suspects are the only types of players you can attack in high sec space. The above settings will remove the background from everything except the most important targets, allowing you to instantly see who to attack.

War targets, those in a limited engagement with you, those with security status below -5, criminals and suspects are the only types of players you can attack in high sec space. The above settings will remove the background from everything except the most important targets, allowing you to instantly see who to attack.

Remember that the Uni may set the standing of an alliance or corporation to +5 or more, in which case a blue background will appear on a target even if it is flashy. In these cases the target should NOT be fired at (blue trumps flashy).

It is ~~important~~ to set backgrounds in the same order as colortags ~~in case you decide to~~ check ~~them~~ to make ~~them more visible on~~ the ~~overview. This can be very helpful~~ in ~~wormholes to make it easier to see neutrals warping into your grid.~~

'''Due to changes in Retribution, it is no longer proper to set backgrounds in the same order as colortags -- please double-check to make sure you have the backgrounds and colortags set in the orders listed above!'''

You have now set up all your general overview settings. It is a good idea to now save a default EVE University overview. - we’ll move onto setting up individual presets now.
