Could you please, PLEASE, make the distance to locked targets more visible next to it or on top of it or something. For me its a constant problem that I cant always see it, its so small (i have a high rez monitor). Maybe make it bold and slightly bigger or maybe a bright green or something. I know for a fact im not the only one who wishes for this. The numbers are so tiny and so like every other text next to it that before i know it im either out of range or too close. I would like to be able to see that info without actually super-focusing on the tiny area of the screen....sort of passively see it.

Also related to distance....but thats just wishful thinking...have the speed turn red if its decreasing and green if its increasing. Kind of makes it easier to keep track of whats going on when you are fighting 2-3-4 ships at once, which is often the case with me.

Yes, im expecting fierce opposition from the hardcore, micromanaging, "everything must be super hard to do" crowd. Roll

Too much imformation crowding the space would make anything larger than 5 ships in a fleet impossible to navigate accurately.

Not supported.

As a counterpoint all of this information is in your overview, and if your having a hard time seeing it on you amazing monitor, I would support that overview font size can be adjusted. Also this issue might be fixed with the new font, have you looked at it on Sisi?

original poster is right. Maby something that can be set in the configuration menu (esc) then it displays the DTT in a color over the target icon ? Or ring the icon green or red if its in-or out side optimal range..

The UI is supposed to be scalable to some degree in the next expansion. Problem solved before you brought it up? Try going on Sisi and messing with that, it should solve your problem.
