Little things / Small QoL suggestions

Suggestion: Use the empty spot in the middle of the capacitor display for a warp drive status indicator
Keywords: Warp, scram, point, tackle
Note: “Can I warp?” is a vital piece of missing information in the HUD

One of the most important questions in PvP (and, arguably, in the game as a whole) is “Can I warp?” The answer to this changes from moment to moment based on how many players are applying how many points of warp disruption to you, whether you’re being influenced by bubbles, etc.

The suggestion here is to use the empty spot in the middle of the HUD’s capacitor circle to show the warp drive status: Green if you wan warp and Red if you can’t (or some other color combination which clearly distinguishes the two states). [ Edit: A simple on/off light would work great too. ]

Note: Full credit for this idea goes to KanmanDS who was suggesting this years ago.
