WIth regards to
I think having comparison pictures that are actually at the same zoom level is a good start for an objectve comparison, lol, so thanks. I have played with modded icons for years now (but not much in general) after maybe playing without for half a year.
At the end of the day, familiarity is going to be the biggest hindrance to liking the modded icons.
Never underestimate the amount of "muscle memory" and brain stuff that is going on when you try to understand what you see in a picture. Like i would guess more than half of "how clear is that picture compared to the other picture" has nothing to do with how clear the picture actually is, but with how familiar you are with whatever the picture depicts.
And i would like a base full of ravagers and SAMs (which usually is never built in PvP in very tight clusters, area damage exits) to make it as clear as possible to me that it is full of ravagers and SAMS, so i will gladly take SLIGHTLY bigger icons / more overlap for such a case .
Now i think it could be better. Some things could be smaller. But it is right now perfectly usable in mm or anywhere else for anybody who decides to try and get used to it for some time.
