Make the vehicle menu readable

I suggest a redesign of the personal vehicle list menu, because it's currently extremely hard to quickly decide what vehicle to spawn.
The storage location has to go, nobody reads it or cares about where the vehicle is stored.
The vehicle name must be the first column, and should only be the vehicle name, while the license plate should be on another column. This could be the most important change to make the menu actually easy to read.
The status should be in the second column, alone without health etc...
Health, tires, fuel should be at the end, and values separated by some separator, like a slash.


This is how I would design it:




Edit: another important thing: vehicles should be sorted by vehicle model name! It will make it 2x faster to search your desired vehicle

Personally I like the current layout a whole lot more and have no problem reading it, despite my poor eyesight. -1

Your render would need to look more like mikes but I agree with you that it is very overwhelming / cluttered. I agree it needs have more useful information and cut the rest.

I agree on this one, The current layout has kinda ruined the set of the new features that was added, and it would be nice if it is changed to something easy for the eye.

The render is just an example in use here. Doesn't mean it should be the same.

This is a good idea +1, it's really cluttered and not organised properly as of now.  Will be nice and easy to work with, if implemented. Good idea.

To be perfectly honest, I agree it is a little cluttered but I'm not sure if wasting resources on this is a good idea. Maybe minimum effort to make it a bit more "readable"

I believe it's worth it, and anyway it's just a matter of tweaking a line that presumably looks like this:
Code: [Select]
"%s\t%s (%s)\t%s\t%s - Health %d%%, tires %d %d %d %d, fuel %d%%\n", location, model, plate, colors, status, health, tire1, tire2, tire3, tire4, fuel
