Add SHIP SHIELD AND ARMOR Status Bars - Already present

[lordaquarius]

Is there any way to see the ship SHIELD and ARMOR status, as the AMMO in the HUD while you flying on the ship??? I think EGOSOFT can add those, I have not seen them in my game...

Also, it will be great to have a much better turret management, other than just clicking the icons... you can have a drop down on the turrets to set them all to a particular setting... or at least indicate what they do, the icons just dont do...

EGOSOFT can improve the HUD a lot with little things...

white (armor/hp) and blue (shields) right below the reticle.

The 1.5 beta has the turret setting in a drop down and fixes turrets not working on captured ships.

Yes, but that is not clear... some plain vanilla status bars will, no need to reinvent the wheel... and make them obvious and big, the same with the turret management and ammo counts... a bar for heating and weapon reloads will also be neat!

I had to laugh as your last post asked for big status bars. Also, the weapons cooldown/reload are to either side of the reticle. I get what you're saying as in the heat of battle, your ship's situation isn't exactly highlighted. It would be good to have varied huds rather than the minimalist one included.

As said above, the ship hull and shields are shown via the curved line below the reticle.
Weapon ammo and heat is next to the weapon icons to the left or right of the reticle.
