Test Server Feedback

Hi everyone,

In order to fix an issue with overlapping texts when you were being actively jammed through ECM, we decided to add the jamming effects to be visible in the offensive effect bar you see above the Ship HUD (The capacitor/health/speed UI).

We're looking for feedback on this new look so we can adjustments if necessary. Please try this out in game on Singularity if you can, and let us know what you think.

We also added incoming (remote) defensive effects, such as capacitor transfer, sensor boosting, tracking links, ECCM projection, hull & armor repairers, and finally shield boosting.

You can see an image of how this looks in game here:

Offensive effects will always appear to the left, and Defensive to the right.

Update:
There have been some modifications in reacting to the feedback. Please let us know what you think, so that we can make further changes if necessary.

ok, first issue: Remote Armor Repair icon is not working

guardian repping and capping - http://c2n.me/3syKmBY

only cap icon showing on repped ship - http://c2n.me/3syKpPP

screen shows on e module activated but i had full rack of hi slot active at the same time with the same effect.

Also tested only repping without capping and no icon was showed.


As for the icons itself, the contrast is to weak imho. If you look at that icon closely You can see what it is, but with multiple things happening at the screan at the same time it might be not to easly distinguishable between diffrent for of ewar/buff


Off to test diffrent effects and more effects at the same time :)

I suggest adding so you can change the colours, will help the colour blind among us :) and some might be annoyed by it so a way to turn it off will be appreciated :)

very cool, disrupt/scam are a bit harder to tell apart though,

No "pretty" effect please, but make it usability first.

1. Different icon for red/green blind people.
2. Leave the interior icon like it is, color it only on an outside ring.
3. Make the cycle time good to see.

Forgive my poor paint skills, but do it like this.

I see what you're going for here, but even as someone who is not colorblind it's a little hard to tell the difference between the two leftmost icons.

My thoughts: Unshade the icons, make every icon have a cycle timer of the appropriate color. Blue for good things, red for bad. Icons could sit on a colored background, and where icons go should be directional - negative effects to the left of the centerline, positive effects to the right.

More effects that will not display properly nice.
I will take great joy looking at this when running my lvl 4 missions.

i like that idea.

I can't get near a client at the moment, but does this still work with your HUD at the top of the screen?

Will I be able to tell the difference between being neuted and being NOSed at a glance?

Also, will it show w-space system-wide effects? It would be great if it did.
