Add numbers to hint blocks to make them more readable

Changes

New hint block textures

See Textures

Since using arabic numerals is rotation sensitive, I tested with and without numbers on the top and bottom (since these would not be oriented consistently). I found it more readable without and went forwards with that approach.

See both options

With top/bottom

Without

Todo

• Find textures to replace old versions of:
  • Number 12
  • "AIR" (Empty)
  • "Default Hint"
  • "Error"
  • "NO AIR"

are you aware of this?

are you aware of this?

No I hadn't seen that. I'm happy to close this if you prefer. I was doing it on the request of @boubou19 GTNewHorizons/GT5-Unofficial#3254 (comment).

baps_ already had the textures created.

I don't like my old "utilitarian" style textures. I'm not sure if the proposed texture would be better either. the problem with numbers is they sometimes create information overload on larger multis. can you post a ingame screenshot of hinting heat exchanger?

in any case, at the very least the new textures aren't as blury

[kstvr32]

Yeah. Here are a couple larger multis.

Large Heat Exchanger

Mega Vacuum Furnace

it's still slightly confusing when all the "1"s stack together, but i'd say it's much better than I thought
