Inconsistency in UI Layout

[parracodea]

Helm/Weapons/Tactical/Single Pilot share a lot of UI elements, but aren't consistent in where the same control appears on screen.

For example, the "Impulse+Warp+Jump+Request Dock" block appears in 3 different places on the screen:

• Helm: Bottom Left
• Tactical: Bottom Right
• Single Pilot: Upper Left

And within that "block", those controls appear in different spaces relative to each other:

• Helm: Impulse-Left, Warp-Right, Dock-Bottom
• Tactical: Impulse-Right, Warp-Left, Dock-Bottom
• Single Pilot: Impulse-Left, Warp-Right, Dock-Top

Making the layout more consistent would make it easier when flipping between different stations.

Here's a possible layout. I think it's easier to look at and compare the layouts in the presentation slides, but I've also included it as a jpeg:

Your examples were made in a very wide aspect ratio, while EEs base ratio is 4:3. I think a comparison would be easier if you use that aspect ratio.

That, and this adds different inconsistencies. Also, space on the right side is reserved of scenario custom info/buttons
