Here’s an overview of what’s different:

  • All dialogs now have rounded corners (including Player Finder and Chat).
  • Some dialogs now have a more prominent title featuring a rounded bg.

In-Game:

  • Changed menu fonts to Myriad Pro (cleaner, easier to read).
  • Colored: Undo & Help
  • Highlighted: Clear Orders, Priority Target, & Unload (when applicable)
  • Changed the HELP screen: now easier to read and more concise.

Hope these changes help!
