Caveats
  • The movie is not drawn over the tactical view. The radar pane is given over to it, and the radar returns to the mode it was showing once the movie has run out.
  • EVA announces an incoming transmission as the radar switches over, and the movie holds its first frame until she has finished. Everything else the game is playing is then halved in volume — music, sound effects and speech alike — and the level is put back to what it was once the last queued movie has finished.
  • Only a campaign game plays the movie. A skirmish or any multiplayer session passes over it without a word.
  • Movies asked for while one is already running are held in order and played one after another, and the radar only goes back to its previous mode once the last of them has finished.
