Green fuel meters

Postby EchoMan » Sun Jan 03, 2010 11:47 am

Please make the fuel meters green. Red meters represent bad things everywhere else.

Alternatively, make it a emptiness meter, so that 0% is a full tank and 100% is a depleted one.

I think consistency of the interface is important, though. So I agree: green is better.

Are we changing all the meters that show how full locations are too then? Considering it appears on the same page that's always had red....

I think it's to say that the meters will be green when they have fuel in them. And grow red as the fuel is consumed.

- A full location is a concern, while a full tank is not.
- An empty locatuion is not a concern while an empty tank is.

A full location is cause for celebration. :D
