    I am an avid roleplayer and play skyrim and such, one thing i have noticed is that i cant tell what my exact amount of health is, i just have a bunch of bars that count for my health but dont tell me the exact number, this is crucial for survival i think,i want to be able to mouse over my bars at the top left and it tell me exactly where my limit is and how much i have left, a small detail but its important to know what you have

    Maybe we could have a smooth bar with a number instead of a segmented bar?

    I agree, having numbers there would be really helpful. I like the idea of a mouseover effect verses it always being there.

    Glad to see my idea is liked, no I love having just numbers too, but a mouse over would maybe also keep it a bit original, i dont remember any game having that before, so i want that to be an original in starbound then if it is

    I think this could also be applied to durability of pickaxes

    They do have it in games, particularly MMOs, and usually there are options to turn the numbers on and off based on what you want.
