 In the center of the HUD is a crosshair. This indicates where your weapons are zeroed (i.e. focused to cross and cause the most damage). During combat, you will usually attempt to have your opponent appear in this crosshair when firing.
-Where you have a targeted object in your front viewscreen, that object will appear with an open square bracket surrounding it. Where you lock onto your target, the square will be solid. If you have missile lock on your target, a diamond will appear around the square. Lastly, where your ship is fitted with [[Manual:Combat:Target tracking|ITTS]], a small diamond will appear in front of your targeted object.

+==Directional Target Pointer==
 Where you have locked onto a target, but the target is not currently in your forward view (e.g. target is to the side or behind you), a directional pointer will appear on the edge of the HUD. This pointer provides an indication of the direction and location of your current target.

 Located to the Bottom Centre are the ship displays. These include:
 * Scanners: These two circles represent the forward detection array (left) and the rear detection array (right). All detectable objects (ships, bases etc) are represented by dots on this display. If the object is ahead of you, the corresponding dot will appear in the forward display, to the rear in the rear display. Your currently targeted object will appear as a cross. On obtaining Detection Array upgrades, these dots may be color coded to reflect your reputation with the object.
-* Current Velocity: located above the left detection display is the Current Speed Indicator. This indicates the forward velocity of your ship, taking into account overdrive use and changes in direction.
+* Current Velocity: located above the left detection display is the Current Speed Indicator. This indicates the magnitude of your ship's velocity, the vector of which is not necessarily aligned with your current heading.
-* Set Velocity: located above the right detection display is the Set Speed Indicator. This indicates the forward velocity your ship travels without changes in direction or after burn.
+* Set Velocity: located above the right detection display is the Set Speed Indicator. This indicates the desired forward velocity of your ship.
-* [[Manual:Insystem travel|SPEC]] Velocity: located below the Current Velocity indicator, this displays the multiplication factor the [[Manual:Insystem travel|SPEC]] drive gives to your current speed.
+* [[Manual:Insystem travel|SPEC]] Velocity: located below the Current Velocity indicator, this displays the effective velocity the [[Manual:Insystem travel|SPEC]] drive is causing you to travel at.
 * Weapon Energy: the red bar located above the detection displays is your energy weapon capacity. Firing energy weapons drains this capacity, but is restored after ceasing fire, provided the reactor has sufficient additional capacity.
-* Jump Energy: the blue bar indicates system drive capacity. Use of both in system and interstellar drives drains this energy. If the energy recorded is insufficient, you cannot activate either drive.
+* FTL Energy Capacitor: the blue bar indicates system drive capacity. Use of both in-system and interstellar drives drains this energy. If the energy recorded is insufficient, you cannot activate either drive.
 * Overdrive Fuel: using overdrive consumes additional fuel. To avoid a ship being stranded in space, fuel available for overdrive is limited. Once used, your ship must be refueled at a base.
 * Enemy Lock: This light indicates that an opponent has you target locked.
