UI Improvement on Skill Template

UI Improvement on Skill Template
This idea/suggestion has been flagged as Implemented so it has (or will be) implemented into the game in some capacity. More information can be found in the post from the development team.

Proposal
Clarify the type of XP required on the Skill Template UI page
Justification
The skill templates UI page doesn't make it clear what skill boxes open up with what XP types. For a new player this could provide a fairly frustrating experience especially as actions can reward more than one XP type.

One additional suggestion would be to add the bars of XP to each skill box so that it's easy to see how close you are to gathering enough XP for a box.
Motivation
For newer players it's not obvious what XP you require for the various skill boxes.
Found R3 the other day and thoroughly enjoying reliving my early 20's again! Trying to persuade my brother to join and realised that the XP system is pretty complex unless somebody explains it to you - so here's a thought on improving it a little bit :)

This suggestion has been implemented. Votes are no longer accepted.
The skill page is still a W. I. P. and we are working to finish fixing/improving it.
If you're looking for the skill monitor, you can toggle it on/off when you open your skill page and look at the bottom left of the page.

The skill monitor is a great help, but has 2 problems:

1. when you take any shutle or ship for travel it resets so you need to reselect the skills to track
2. when you learn a new skill you must take it off and on for it to resets the skills

Thanks for the reply! I didn't realise it was WIP :) It wasn't the skill monitor, more that on the template page, I'm sure years ago there was a little black XP bar on the "next" skill you could learn that filled up yellow as you gained XP if that makes sense (not sure if I'm explaining that well). However that's largely mute if you folk are still working on the page ;)

100% agree, but as you say, will hold on until its past the WIP state.
