    Ok, so the new chat system is great. It is much more secure and you are less prone to accidentally leaking important faction information, but there is one thing that really needs to be fixed: items on the HUD covering chat messages. (Shield/power meters, "target hexagons", etcetera)

    When a chat message is sent, part of it can be blocked by the power/shield meters on the sides. That's slightly annoying but has a simple fix, move it out of the way of those meters. But then when I do that, it will get in the way of fighting and such.

    The thing that really bugs me are the target markers, and the arrows on the side of the screen pointing to objects. Those also cover the chat messages, and it is impossible to avoid all of them.

    The place where the chat used to be is much better, in the bottom left corner. I think the best fix would be to have chat messages go OVER items on screen and the HUD instead of under them, and thus being blocked by them.

    Cheers,
