HUD UI Symbols

[Roger Wilco Jr]

Have you seen this?



The little icons that appear under the ships hologram, yours and your targets, typically during combat.
There's no way I'll be able to remember all of those!

I have, always nice to pass it along though. Had to find it when 2.1 launched because all of a sudden I had 3 status symbols and no key lol.

I have seen some of those on screen, but had no idea what the symbols translate into.

Thanks for posting that, Roger Wilco. I had no idea what the symbols represented either.

Also no clue what those really meant.

So I have so far just ignored them. I just shoot til it is dead or it is my time to run
Don't see why it needs to be more complicated than that.

FD emphasis on the inconsequential.

Couldn't agree more...

FD - we love you..but..

Thanks for the graphic; I added it at the bottom of a quick reference graphic of the landing pads. I run that and other tools on a second screen off to the side of my main screen (along with other tools such as Voice Attack, E:D Market Connector, etc.).

Of course, I haven't played in weeks - I'm thinking of giving ED another try today though the various forum posts make me think there are still significant issues. Maybe I'll wait and just give the Descent Underground release candidate a run-through... sigh.

I only ever see a handful of these. Usually just the impulse attack against me, but that's also accompanied by a voice warning. On the ships I'm attacking, I only ever really see the malfunction, internal damage, and hull breach icons, but I don't have a lot of customized weapons either.

Exactly, I don't really care how something is trying to kill me, it's not as if we actually get to choose what sort of defensive capabilities we deploy (with the exception of chaff), it basically boils down to shoot it or run away from it.
