Right now, if someone has you locked, they get yellow brackets around their icon on the overview. If they try to harm you(shoot, jam, etc.), they turn red. I'd like to add one more mode to this - if someone is aiding you(cap transfer, remote rep, etc.), the brackets should turn green. If they're both aiding and harming you, like a tard, make it striped red/green or something.
This would make it a lot easier to see what's happening with logi etc. in fleets, and it'd create no lag(since all the information is already being sent anyways). Not a big deal, but it'd be nice if this wound up on Team BFF's big list.
If you wanted to get ambitious, you could also make icons for what the aiding effects are, just like we get EW icons now, but that's not a big deal.

Why do you have friendlies on your overview in the first place? Signature removed. |

It would also show up in space, which would be nice as well. So give a thumbs up for a good idea noob!

Because you're a logistics pilot? Or you're paranoid about knowing that the reps are actually coming? Or you just like showing off how super powerful your gaming-rig-from-hell really is?

Sure. Though I'd rather have red override green bracket than be striped.

I fly logi a lot. Knowing when the Guardian feeding me is getting capped out and not transferring me any more is useful.

I like the general idea. It would be nice if the bracket icon could change instead of or in addition to turning green. I have color vision issues and the yellow/green/red mix would make it really hard for me to determine who is doing what.
Other than that great idea!!!

No reason why this shouldn't be in the game.
Just make sure the colour is easily distinguishable from the yellow box. Id' prefer a blue brackets because some shades of yellow and green are not easily distinguishable but that's for the whoever makes this for decide.

This would be a really useful UI enhancement.
The only caveat I'd add would be that if someone assists AND aggros you, they should still be redboxed.

Interesting and solid idea, but the default colours should NOT be red/green, but something else more easily differentiated by colour-blind people. _

Better have red green for the majority of people who are not colour blind (as it is really fast to see the difference) and make another alteration like bracket type/shape/flash rate/whatever workes best, as well so that colour blind people are also covered. I sympathise with those that can't fully diferentiate different colours but for the majority that can its pretty much the fastest good/bad indicator there is, especially in crowded information-rich enviroments. given that it makes no difference to someone who is colour blind what colour it is I see no reason to rule out useing colour for the majority that can see it and simply add other tools for those that can't. __________________________________________________
