When you overheat you have to wait your overheat time to start overheating again
for the full time.

I notice myself holding the F key forever sometimes in the heat of battle.

So suggestion:

Once over heat is over kill the F key so even though its being depressed it doesnt
register in game.

Other suggestion:

Include a light or fill bar (4 colors red, oragne, yellow, green) saying that your
overheat is back at full potential.

No colors - empty
Red - 25% of overheat is back - you'll overheat 25% of your overheat time
Orange - 50% of overheat is back - you'll overheat 50% of your overheat time
Yellow - 75% of overheat is back - you'll overheat 75% of your overheat time
Green - 100% of overheat is back - you'll overheat 100% of your overheat time

EDIT**



Edit****

Or even just a green light similar to that of landing forces just showing that your
overheat is back at 100%.

Yeah grub thats what I figured...

there already has to be something keeping track of the overheat time and recovery
time

why not just make it visible to help the players keep track of it?

Bump. Not letting this thread die. It's way too easy to implement and would help so
much.

Edit: There must already be a variable in the game keeping track of this. Let's say
your overheat timer is 10 seconds... when you start overheating that number gets
decreased... it hits 0 and you slow back down and begin recharging your OH time. It
might not be exactly like that, but the game has to somehow know when to stop
you from exceeding your normal speed, it can't be hard to make a light or progress
bar to show that value.
