Alternate control panel layout


Recommended Posts

Since we have such a nice topic about the UI, there are two little things I like to add.

 

1) (from a modders point of view) - there are silhouettes for 'Blue' HQs and 'Red' HQs. Thats okay if you use only the original two color graphics, since you can't see something on them anyway, but it would be nice if there would be seperate HQ silhouettes for each nation. Makes a difference with full color graphics.

 

2) That's more something odd. You have a squad with a heavy weapon, shall we say a mortar. One soldier is shown with a mortar shell in the UI, all others with there rifle. That doesn't makes any sense. The mortar is not operated by a single soldier anyway. It would make more sense to show each individual with his rifle.

For now, this is purely stylistic alternative.

First pass, with some positional adjustments and colour/contrast to finalise.

 

Is there a master shadow frame (b/w) that allocates button placement?

Or is it coded in?
