rebuild status in the hud?

<< < (2/3) > >>

evodoc:
I think this should be definitely implemented in spectator mode, along with buffing status. As for players, I don't know, maybe captains only?

Rainer Zu Fall:
That's actually a really nice idea I haven't heard before yet.
I think it would be quite nice to have something like that, but otherwise your engines are just able to say "I'm on the hull" usually (something different if they write though, I agree to that).
I can see it as a bit too much though, if there are many components damaged, some down, you see the compass above and the tools in the bottom and inbetween some yellow lines too. Depends on how it would be presented I guess.
But I'm all "yes!" for this so far.

dasfoxx:
I like this idea~

Cheeseycom:
I like this idea!
I'm usually an Engineer, so an indicator like this is less of a must for me than it would be for the Captain.. but then again, I tend to fly on Mobulas, and it'd be nice to know if the other Engineer is doing his job properly! =)

I don't think it would add much in the way of clutter to the HUD.. but it could be made a bit more subtle - for example, rather than being a yellow progress bar, the red 'broken' icon could fade back to its normal colour as the repair progresses. The only downside to this that I can see is that if an Engineer is interrupted one click away from a full repair and forgets to go back, it might be hard to tell apart a fixed component from a nearly-fixed one.
So maybe it would make sense to add a distinctive colour to repairs in progress..

Locutus of borg:
wow a post on the forum that is met with general consensus, what has the world come too?
