Edited by: Ket Halpak on 26/09/2007 05:08:09 Edited by: Ket Halpak on 26/09/2007 05:02:12 Hi all!
Something that has been bugging me for a while is that there is no indication on your mods/weapons when their cycles are about to end and chew through some more cap, making micromanagement a little difficult in a tense situation.
I would like to propose a small change to the UI where there is a filled in transparent circle covering the mod that circles the mod and lets you know when it is close to its finishing time.
EG
My image looks crap because I used mspaint as I am at work at the moment and I used red to make it visible, but I belive it is something simple that will make micro management much easier.
I do not know how hard this will be to implement, but it is something I would like to see.
Thanks for reading :) _ This is a dev trap sig. It has beer in it. Lets see how many we can catch :) *Free Beer, Don't mind the spikes* |

yes ./signed
Only problem is, that i bet trinity2 is already finished and packaged, so adding any new stuff bring some more work..

this would be handy, but id rather see it use the circular frame around each button, minus the top segment which is reserved for the overload status (otherwise things could start to look too cluttered).

Count me as onboard almost any idea that gives some sort of notice about how long that module cycle has left. (and perhaps the ability to kill a cycle early on some modules) _______________________________

A circular frame might work, but I think it may clutter the interface up even more as you would need a little extra space around each mod so the timer is visible. But either way the interface will be just that bit more cluttered lol.
I just want something that tells me how long till my mod has cycled. I think that providing some sort of example is just better than going "zomg CCP!!1!! I dun knoe when my mods will cycle, fix it!11oneleventtytwo"

hehe. well i made myself a little mockup too, to see how clear itd be using the frame thats currently there. doesnt seem to work as well with colours other than blue, but blue isnt used for anything else on the buttons so it wouldnt get confused with other feedback. i thought, since the frame has 8 segments on it, might as well use those for the timer. it doesnt have to be pixel accurate.
the only thing that wouldnt work so well with this frame is that the pulsing glow of an active module could become less clear, although with the timer up youd know the modules active anyway..
