Can we please have some simple weapon door indicators in the HUD, like the ECM thing?

nothing too fancy needed...

i'm colorblind and it's virtually impossible for me to tell if the light shows open, closed or destroyed ;) .

thanks.

I second this. I'm not color blind and it's still difficult to see.

what, you don't think the light yellow to light green change is substantial enough?

as far as the OP, yes this is a good idea.

We definitely need some sort of improved indicator. Even if it is down next to the weapons display on the lower right, just a simple X or O next to each launcher would be an improvement.

Is there an actually indicator already in game that shows this? I have not been able to find anything around my cockpit to represent if my missile bay doors are open or closed.

A better visual indicator would be nice. I also think it would be a cool addition if they would had two different sound effects for the opening and closing of the doors.

The Catapult, Centurion and Stalker have little yellow or green lights (the colors are seriously hard to distinguish even for normal-sighted people) on the cockpit frames, visible at 1x zoom. Hit the / button a few times and you'll see it barely change from kinda-yellow to kinda-green and back. Yellow = closed, green = open.

A HUD indicator instead of "finding lights" would be a massive improvement.
