Small UI feature request: color coded upgrade button

Soren (or anyone from Mohawk),

is it possible to color code the HQ upgrade button(s) depending on whether you can upgrade the HQ for just resource cost versus an upgrade which includes money?

For example something like:

  • green if you have sufficient resources to upgrade the HQ
  • yellow if you have insufficient resources but can upgrade with additional money.

At moment you have to mouse-over an upgrade button to see in the tooltip whether the upgrade of your HQ (or a purchased HQ) is free of additional cost. This is inconvenient when you have money in the bank but don't want to touch it because you are waiting for the black market to come online.

Yes, the UI could do with some significant improvements. There's a lot that is hidden behind tooltips in order to make the UI seem less cluttered, but I would like to at least have the option for more advanced features. I personally would also like for example the ability to always see how much % a person has to buying out my company, so that I can see when someone is stock piling cash for something, rather than having to look through all the tooltips manually.

Currently however, mohawk is rebuilding the UI, so suggestions currently will most likely be shelved for later. Once it comes out though (I think it's suppsoed to be shipped in beta 5, so 2-3 months) we should totally pressure them to add some things.
