# Overlays

Overlays are full-screen effects on the Crew Stations. They can be applied to Crew Stations individually, or all of them at once.

## Blackout

This makes the entire screen go black and unresponsive.  This is useful if the ship gets shut down or drained of all power.

## Attention

This displays an attention-grabbing graphic over the controls and blocks interaction.  Use this when the crew needs to pay attention to the Captain, something happening on the Viewscreen, or an ongoing conversation with a character.

## Static

This covers the Crew Station screen with static, preventing all interaction.  This works well for situations when the main computer goes offline.

## Glitch

The Crew Station controls remain functional, but a periodic glitchy flicker effect warps the visuals.  This is great for times when the ship is being hacked or probed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://infinity-command.gitbook.io/infinity-command/crew-stations/overlays.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
