Description

The training message gauge and the damage gauge seem to assume that the player is using a 4:3 aspect ratio. The training messages are displayed in what looks like a squarish area, and the damaged subsystem list appears in a single column stretching down vertically. It would be better if an option existed to permit in widescreen the training message box to be more rectangular shapae a la Azem's message box. Similarly, the damaged subsystem list in the damage control could have an option to display damaged subsystems in two columns to conserve scarce vertical screen space in favor of abundant horizontal space.
