Out of Turns / Action Points Banner + Check Timer

A clear yellow banner now appears when navigation is disabled, with a countdown to the next regenerated resource and a one-click check.

Running out of Turns mid-route used to be easy to miss — the only tell was small text on the Warp To dialog. Now, when you’re out of Turns or Action Points, the sector screen shows a persistent yellow banner directly below your arrival report, explaining why navigation is disabled.

It tells you when help is coming. The banner includes a live countdown to the next regenerated resource:

  • Out of turns — next turn in m:ss (turns regenerate 1 per 5 minutes while idle).
  • Out of action points — next +5 AP in m:ss (AP regenerates 5 per minute).

Check for turns / Check for AP. A refresh button next to the countdown instantly re-checks with the server. When the countdown reaches zero the game checks automatically, so the banner clears the moment you can fly again — no manual reload needed. The banner reflects the ship state the game refreshes as you act and move, and your Turns / AP counters in the top bar still turn red when empty.

Also fixed: insurance and cloak expiry times were being interpreted in your browser’s local timezone instead of UTC (server timestamps carry no timezone), which could show insurance or cloak as active/expired at the wrong moment. Both now parse server timestamps correctly regardless of timezone.
