Control Panel

The Control Panel is an interface that's used to, as its name implies, control your Dungeon.
== Dungeon Keeper ==
The Control Panel is situated to the left of the screen. It has five panels: the Information Panel, Rooms Panel, Research Panel, Workshop Panel, and Creature Panel. The Creature Panel allows you to see creature by job, as well as pick them up. The others are just what they sound like; they enable you to build or place, or sell rooms, traps, or doors, or cast spells. At the top is the quantity of gold the player has, the Dynamic Map, and buttons for zooming the Dynamic Map in and out, accessing the Map Screen, accessing the Options Panel, and toggling the Computer Assistance. Message icons are to the right of the Control Panel and messages appear at the bottom of the screen. The Dynamic Map has a dotted line to your Dungeon Heart, and items on the map are colour coded:

== Dungeon Keeper 2 ==
The Control Panel is at the bottom of the screen, and has four panels: the Creatures Panel, Rooms Panel, Spells Panel, and Workshop Panel, all of which are exactly what they say on the tin. The Creatures Panel enables you to control creatures and Imps by job or mood. Upgraded spells' icons are gold in the Spells Panel. To the left is the Dynamic Map (also known as the Minimap), and buttons for Querying, selling rooms, doors, or traps, zooming the Dynamic Map in or out, and accessing the Options screen. The Map Screen is accessed by a hotkey. To the right is the Horny Talisman, or buttons for controlling heroes in My Pet Dungeon mode. Also on the panel is a message tab and battle button, which only appears if there's ongoing combat and zooms you to the scene.
The Dynamic Map is colour-coded:
== Dungeon Keeper Online ==
The Control Panel in Dungeon Keeper Online seems to be a simplified version of the Dungeon Keeper 2 one. The Dynamic Map is in the top-right corner of the screen.
