KaptainsLog

"Captain's log, Stardate 43539.1. We have moved into orbit around Bre'el IV. With the assistance of the planet's emergency control center, we are investigating a catastrophic threat to the population from a descending asteroidal moon.""

This mod REQUIRES and depends on the ProgressParser mod created by @DMagic. I have included a current version of this in the download.

For those who wish to record your efforts, the Kaptain's Log is for you.

This mod will automatically record events as they happen. For many of them, an optional window can open to allow you to enter your own notes.

Automatic screenshot at time of event, savable as either JPG or PNG format, or both
Configurable thumbnail size of screenshots
Display optional window during event record for personal notes

I am writing the following simple templates for the initial release:

My thanks to @DMagic for giving me some icons to use for the message window
