Images on status bar

Post by Lützow »

How about adding pics to the unit status bar in a way the database viewer does (if an image is available show it)? This would contribute to immersion.

Lützow, I would prefer not to. Pictures are - more and more - in the db viewer (I really like to have them there, I do not know any platform and unit by heart, so for my immersion it is a great booster to be able to have a look at the unit), I would prefer to keep them there and leave the GUI as professional as possible. More the way one might have it in a CIC, and I am pretty sure they don't need the pictures to know how that stuff looks that they are pushing.
My 2 p only: pictures are great and helpfull but I would like to see them only in db when I check on units.
Cheers,
Martin

+1 to leave it the way it is, or make it an option only

I'd prefer the developers exploited the unused space in the status bar for additional information or interactive menus.
