Two military screen suggestions
« on: May 18, 2011, 03:41:42 am »

1) Squad assigment screen

Dwarves should be color-coded based on their assigment:
* current grey - no military assigment
* dark green - in squad, inactive
* light green - in squad, active
* dark/light yellow - captain of squad
* dark/light blue - in fortress guard squad

2) Equipment screen

Display item that was picked up and is corresponding to given slot instead of message that item was chosen.

instead of "v Metal Armor"

"v Metal Armor - * Dog Leather Armor * [pickup queued]"

and when dwarf actually picked it up and started wearing it,

"v Metal Armor - * Dog Leather Armor *"

Anything to simplify it.

It should also be modified to have a different colour for the ticks showing that a dwarf has certain uniform items equipped when they have a partial match equipped.
