[0.17.3] Battery indicator very difficult to see

Post by Aoz »

Noticed during gameplay that I could barely see the amount of charge left in my batteries if I was squinting.
I'm on 2560x1440 res at 1.25x UI scaling (auto).

Here's a zoomed in picture which sort of defeats the purpose because the zoom makes it easier to see. But in normal conditions the red in the picture is almost invisible. Could be because of the new darker skinned UI? Not sure.

It would look cheesy if it was all the same color, but maybe there could be a gradient in the other direction (from left-center-right, where it tapers on the sides) to match the round look of the UI it sits in. Currently it looks a little out of place being a bright green flat square anyway (subjectively anyway :)

Agreed. A horizontal gradient would make it more visible even at very low storage, where the dark red makes it almost imperceptible.
