Turtle icon is bad

Postby overtyped » Sat Apr 24, 2021 8:38 pm

The turtle meat icon is kinda hard to see clearly when I'm storing things. Also, it looks too similar to bat. I'm sure others have this problem too, think you can change it a little?

Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

It's not really about unplayable, it's just a small quality of life improvement.

Definitely unplayable. I quit. Goodbye. I cannot abide by such careless design decisions. :D

I just look at it and go "oh, it's the one without an animal icon. must be the turtle meat."

It's not that, it's just that it's too small. If it was enlarged a bit, would be better.
The signs themselves also just show the image super imposed, as if they were stretched to fit, and look blurry. Could use improvements, since we all use them for our cupboards.

Newb question, but what exactly are those signs? As in, what game item is that?

Display Sign. They are built blank and then you right click the item you want to display onto them.

Size wise I feel like meat icons should have them reversed. Large animal, small meat.

I find them all really hard to read.
