Looking at the referee-run game, it would be necessary to pick a 'home' system (system the viewer/player is currently in). Then, news would arrive 'dated' by Jump distance. If the home was Regina, all views of the map would be instantaneous only for events/news in Regina, other systems would be a week, or more, later. If using something like the Traveller Map, movements would be shown to a player in Regina successive weeks old the farther away the systems are. A person with a home at Efate or Jewell would see a totally different delayed picture. Events in Regina would be two weeks old if viewed from Jewell, a week old if in Efate. Any spectator would have a pretty different view, if they could see the map in real-time. Would that ever look strange, as fleets are seen jumping around, arriving too late, or leaving a system only to have an enemy fleet pop in after the friendly ships leave.
