Use of faction’s color in popups' text makes some of it unreadable
Posted: Sat May 25, 2024 4:56 pm
Platform: Steam
Build version: 1.2.2.0 Beta
Severity: Low
Annoyance factor: Low
Saved game: to come if necessary
Here’s a screenshot of the popup shown when I hover above a ship from the Grand Dhayut Tyranny. The ship’s name is difficult to read (I've set the image size and resolution so it shows at about the same size it shows in-game on my system, even though the text is a little bit sharper in-game).
It might not be a bug in the sense that it’s not a programing error, but it is a UI design error. In a UI, text being readable is more important than text representing a faction by its color (which the flag in the right corner does anyway).
I didn’t include a save. Don’t think it’s necessary. But if you think it is, let me know, I’ll post one.
