More compact Super Weapon list

[Eriknoc]

Currently, the list of super weapons on screen can get to be so many that they can't all be shown. I was thinking we could make this a more compact list by only listing the super weapon once per player, followed by the multiple countdown timers, and also in order of pending time from least to most for easy glancing.

It could look something like this, where every timer is shown, including the zero timers:

Particle Uplink Cannon
0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 0:22
0:43 0:59 1:18 1:25 1:42
1:58 2:22 2:45

Since we're listing multiple timers, there's really no point of continuing to show one timer on the same line as the name. That will save on horizontal space. I would also recommend left justification at the right side of the screen as the listed timers would look weird if everything remains right justified. I picked 5 as the maximum number of timers for each line because I believe that would be about the same length as the longest super weapon name, the Particle Uplink Cannon.

An even more compact form could be where the zero timers are removed and only the first 5 lowest non-zero timers are shown:

Scud Storm
0:24 0:59 1:18 1:25 1:42 <- (6 are pending, but only the lowest 5 non-zero timers are shown)
9/15 ready

And if all super weapons are ready, then a single zero timer could be used as a space filler to help keep the list from vertically jumping around so much:

Scud Storm
0:00 <- (only one timer shown when all are ready; showing last timer to reach zero sounds logical)
15/15 ready

If you wanted to shorten the Particle Uplink Cannon name to Particle Cannon or Particle Uplink and only list 4 timers per line, that would save on even more horizontal space.

I agree that the super weapon list will be better more compact.
