* ">COMBAT - DRONES" - combat variant without drones and fighters
* ">COMBAT + DRONES" - combat variant with drones but without fighters
* ">EXPLORATION" - should be loaded by default in the "EXPLORATION" tab.
* ">FOES" - will only show hostile players
* ">FRIENDS" - will show only friendly players
* ">GTFO" - displays just about anything you can warp to in your current system ''(the "F" stand stands for "Frick")''
* ">LITERALLY EVERYTHING" - I don't think I need to explain that one.
* ">LOOT" - will show wrecks, cargo containers, MTUs, ... the loot stuff.
* ">MINING" - Rock & Stone, to the bone!

Nice and easy, nothing confusing. If you ever need something specific for say abyssal running, just create a new preset with everything you need and plonk it in that tab, you'll get to enjoy all the features without having to mess with the tabs or anything!

As long as I remain within Signal Cartel, I will ensure that this overview remains as up-to-date as it gets, no more funny business getting blapped by invisible triangles; and if I ever were to "win EVE", I'm sure you can figure out how to do all that stuff on your own, it's not that hard!
