Hi, i would like to talk for some UI ideas.

1)make this block movable http://i.imgur.com/mPp76Yu.png like these message boxes http://i.imgur.com/QZQk0ZF.png

2)Allow the move left this block http://i.imgur.com/tvuLVxa.png (option in settings of course)

3)Allow the move capacitor block anywhere on the screen, not only horizontal. Better if allow split this like here http://i.imgur.com/uwmYaLD.png

4) overview settings have a background fill color, add there fill color for celestials and deployables

5) add more colors to overview

6)add more tabs in overview

basically he wants to give the text block section of the overview the ability to color code everything including planets and such, ie thing you cant have standings towards...

Other then that I'd use at least part of these things... People have in the last called to allow us to move the local people listing out of the local window and i can think of no reason to NOT want that...

1) Please YES!!! ... I posted this ages ago in one of the "little things" thread. I would so LOVE this.
3) YES!

For me the 2 and 4 are not interesting, but I'm sure it would be used by many. So yes!

As for second item, I have local chat in right part of screen. And i would like be able to move it out of screen, but see only who is in local

As for fourth item, with new overview icons, sometimes difficult make out, where ships, or celestials, or deployables.

I know, i can use ship fill. But with white color, difficult make out icons, with black color so few difference, with yellow or red colors difficult make out when opponent locking or attack me. It will be better if I can fill celestials in one of color.

But the most important thing is of course 1 and 3 point

Hey guys if we just remove local from the game altogether we could completely remove that currently-required window from our screens!

Not very often, but it does happen sometimes. They're mostly reading what's said in the big threads.

Also, if 4) is about allowing people to recolor text in overview for non-player things: Yes, would be useful.
