Detailed description

• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
I like the idea of switching between tabs, but currently there are way too many of them.
Especially the ship map and the dice track, their icons are too unrecognisable in the tab and it's like trying to insert a USB stick the right side up every time I want to get to one of them.
Additionally, since the game auto-switch to the dice track on your turn, and because the ship map is a lot larger than the other boards, if you are on the ship map when the auto-switch happens, it always jumps up and leave you on the bottom of the page so you have to scroll back up.
I suggest putting the ship map and dice board in one page, personal boards in another with options to peak at other player's board (with arrows next to player name like in Ark Nova perhaps?), and all public card piles in another.
Also, maybe add zoom toggling options. -

Report history
For the rest about simplifying and improving the layout, I tend to agree. I will wait some time more to get other feedback before acting on this too hastily.
Thanks for the comment!
So it would be great to add a margin for the tabs by simply moving the boards a little to the right. I'll make a separate ticket for that suggestion.
