Loyalty implant icon on sec huds

Post by Malkevin » #102958

Its been moved down from the top right corner to be on the same level as the wanted status.

This is massively aesthetically unpleasing and looks terrible, there's nothing else to say about them

If it was done so that antag icons aren't covered by the icon then I suggest moving the antag icons to one of the bottom corners.

My concern is that icons on the lower corners won't be as noticeable. But otherwise I agree it's ugly.

One idea I had was to make the antag icon and implant icons blink alternately so they can share the same spot, but that might be distracting to some. I dunno.

Blinking icon's would be distracting.

The old placement was fine, I wonder who and why this was changed.

It was changed because anag icons were in the same spot. It's pretty ugly now though.

For reference, what the HUD icons look like now with all of them on.

Disgusting, I know.

I was going to use the Cult icon (because you can have that an loyalty at the same time) but I had difficulty getting that to show so I just used the Syndicate icon in its place

Could it be made into a preference so you can either have it blinking and be REALLY fucking annoying + looking like shit or how it used to be which looked amazing.

Fuck antag Icons.. When are you ever going to be implanted and an Antag at the same time???
Why would you even let yourself be implanted while antag!?

If you're in a cult, and you're implanted with a loyalty implant, you retain your cult status but appear implanted to everyone else. It's the ultimate disguise.

Then make the implant icon not look horrible and distracting.

With it flashing and making a box around the job icon it just looks unprofessional and downright lazy.

edit:

Also again.. Make it a preference! Some people like me don't care if the cult icon and implant icon are in the same place.

Until you almost get banned because the loyalty implant covered the antag icon and you killed your team mate.

Which is what prompted the change.

Why dont you just make the antag icon appear over the implant icon?

If someone is in the same antag faction as you, you don't even care if they're implanted anyway.
