it means that some one is tailing u

Yep... I replayed mission one just to figure out what it is for and during the brief period when I could actually place the mouse pointer on it the description says something like you are being tracked, which seems rather meanless since you get shot at so often and the warning doesn't appear most of the time.

Here I am, brain the size of the universe, and I just found out about the warning lights... *sigh* I'm so depressed.

how can that be? i get trailed all the time and i only saw in it the first mission, and once after that. why doesnt it happen more often, or when your fleeing a battle and the ships are chasing you?

Wow, Haven't seen this thread in a while!!! I have to agree with phyurball. When you do the bar missions you would think that you would get the warning all the time if it was as simple as that. More questions...

If I had a nickel for every time someone told me that my idea of building a giant robotic parrot out of melted down coins was a bad idea, I would have one kick a$$ giant robotic parrot.
