Would love feedback on the Exhaustion Meter V2 since it was such a big area of discussion last release.

I like the grey and blue (all blue if you cram) colours. I am seeing more stages than I was before. But I still see 0 bands to early in my personal stage of exhaustion. From just reached 0 bars I can walk all the way from Finnigan's Parcel Delivery to Courier Service in Copley Square. That's not very exhausted at all.
I want 0 bars to mean 'you are already exhausted'.
1 or 2 bars to mean 'you can probably make a delivery in this neighbourhood, but not in a different one before you become exhausted',
3 or 4 bars to mean 'you can probably make a delivery in this neighbourhood and in the one next door, but not half way across town' and
something more than that to mean 'you are fine with going across town, or getting in a taxi'.
It is important to me that there is one state that is _you are already exhausted_ which you can read off the meter, as if you get jumped
when you are down to 0 bars you have no way of knowing, in the fight, if you are just at low energy, or if you are exhausted.
I think the meter should be renamed 'Energy' since lots of bars means lots of energy, not lots of exhaustion. (Either than or reverse the
graphics so that lots of bars _is_ lots of exhaustion, and 0 bars is what you have when you wake up.)

And it's not consistent for me -- this time I went to 0 bars just outside of South Boston Sacred Heart (where I made a delivery) I started on my way to Copley Square to see how far I would get this time, and only made it to I-93 barrens before becoming exhausted.

new status bar is really nice idea, but honestly - i dont like that grey-blue bar. for me its weird. maybe scale from green to red? or from light green to dark-green/dark-grey?

I badly want something that is not green, red or orange. Something that cannot be confused with your rep in a zone if you glance at it. |

koles - the blue marks are right on with the changes in text status, "Sharp and Alert" is the very highest blue bar, then "Fully Rested", "Rested" and down the chain. I hope that helps explain. grävling - great suggestion on switching to Energy and also putting something special in there when you are actually straight up Exhausted. I swear I fixed the 0 condition where it would not read "no bars" until you were Exhausted, but sounds like that didn't quite close.

fallen, I have seen the same results - zero bars, but only dog tired.

Chance - will be sure to get that resolved next time around. If the bug still exists, it means that when you have 0 bars, you are either already Exhausted or will be within the next 35 minutes.

fallen its no problem. I like the grey/blue colors; they really stand out. And even though zero bars doesn't mean exhausted, I've learned to use the meter the way it is. Before, exhaustion would sneak up on me at the most in-opportune times. As it is now, when the meter gets to zero bars, I know that means I'm dog tired and need to start looking for a bed, or start using crammers in order to finish a job I'm on. Do I wish zero bars equals exhausted? Sure. But, the meter is still useful.

Chance - thank you! Next release, we'll close that last gap. It has definitely helped me avoid Exhaustion when I wasn't expecting it!
