Track Items: Different colour for tracking items with a low quantity #44

The colour red doesn't seem to be the best option when it comes to show a tracked item is below a certain quantity threshold. I assumed it it to be some kind of error as a lot of errors across other software are shown with a red font. Maybe change the font to a dark-ish orange colour so that people don't assume it to be some kind of error.

10 seems like a good enough threshold for the default white colour to change to notify the player of an item that soon-ish is fully consumed.

A small info similar to the capped stats in the Player Info tooltip might alleviate potential misconceptions about a changing font colour.

The way that I'd like to make this work in the refactor is that instead of clicking on an item to toggle whether it is tracked or not you can click on it to open up a ui that will allow you to set a low/high treshhold so YOU can determine if something is low and needs to be restocked or if something is high and needs to be sold off.

Had something like that in mind for a second but didn't write it down. UI means it has to become something like a 2nd inventory in which you can select the items you want to track and depending on the UI offer another UI that opens when you click on an item to offer the options for threshold amount and maybe colour.
