In such systems, where you compare information you need to have the same layout for both teams and NOT mirror them as it is now. The mirroring makes it VERY HARD to see whats going on when you switch to the other team to look at!

I'm pretty sure it's sorted by point value, from high to low, isn't it? Then it's grouped by ship class. I see nothing wrong with this.

I am not talking row sorting, but column sorting, pay close attention to the columns headers!

OK, I'm looking at them. It's mirrored with the battlefeed as the divider. I still see nothing wrong with this. Am I missing something?

How so?

With your eyes centered on the middle the first thing you see on either side is ecm, ship type and ship HP. Doesn't that make it EASIER to switch back and forth?

Its bad because whenever you switch looking at team specifics, you got to switch column ordering too, to an unnatural order and one that is different from the one you just looked at. Its really design 101.

As an example, whenever a name of ship type is called, I instinctively look at the wrong column 50% of the time, mixing up ship names with player names for example. And what is shield on one team reads like is hull on the other.

The current order is just so unnatural and only done for ecstatics if you ask me.

Agree with OP. That + I keep wondering what kind of weird ships they fly that starts bleeding hull damage before shield/armor. P

AFK-cloaking in a system near you.
