3DO planet scan graphics are improperly centered, resized lo-res #96

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

nav/orbitbackground-020.png is still a blown-up lo-res image (the blue symbols 
in 3DO planet scan)

Changing status to low. If we don't have 3do menus on our first release, it's 
no big deal.

Some areas need improvement or slight changes, see capture.
From left to right:

- The weather and tectonics class is shown with weird < > symbols.
Also, The weather coding is still wrong - that's already recorded in issue 112.
Since these two indicators are class indicators, can't we put them as a bar 
instead?
Like this:
IIIIIIII

Each notch fills up depending on the class and they fill up green for the first 
3, orange for notch 4 and 5, and red for the last 6-8 notches.

- The temperature should show the degree sign and the C for Celsius. Otherwise 
we don't know if that's hot or not, since it could be in K.  In a more general 
way, the 3Do version seems to have removed all the units! the a.u. for Orbit, 
the atm for atmosphere, the e.s. for mass and radius, the g for gravity, and 
degrees, and the "days" for the rotation time.

- The same icon, a sphere, is used for the atmosphere pressure and the tilt. To 
the untrained eyes they are too close to tell the difference. 

For comparison I am adding the equivalent planet under text scan.

Ohhh, I forgot to change the 3DO menu color coding as well (it's rendered by 
different code). That's been corrected in r861.

Oldlaptop, you wanna go and add the units for 3DO scan? 

I already went and removed the stupid-looking brackets in r863 and replaced 
them with "class" although that does look kinda odd at least yet when there are 
no units in any other category.

IMO colored number is easier and faster to read than a bar indicator in which 
it's too easy to mistake between 5 and 6 bars if they're the same color.

Because this rig-a-jig is gonna be merged with the vanilla UQM it would be 
pointless to add units to the 3DO view since the core UQM team would most 
probably want to keep the 3DO view as original as possible.

Thus, not adding units to the 3DO view.

Verified.
