List DP and hull size in ship tooltip
« on: April 15, 2021, 06:32:28 AM »

I know DP match the stats for maintenance and recovery but both of those can be modified so it can be annoying to read, plus new players may not know that those stats always match.

The hull size can be difficult to guess with a newly encountered ship, especially non-combat ones.

Agree on hull-size being shown explicitely. I've never understood why it isn't listed.

I do not know how to tell the DP by looking at maintenance and recovery as a new player. This should be shown explicitly please.

Also a new player, I agree.

Speaking of which, why isn't the DP listed in the wiki? It would make my life a lot easier.

DP and unmodified recovery cost are the same. That could probably use better signposting.
