On the same topic, maybe would be a good idea to show in-game how much your team controls of the total metal available. Maybe then it would be easier to convince people they need to expand ...

i think they simplified the metal income buy turning it into metal bars that get bigger and more numerous if the mex are better.. but maybe there is already an option or widget you can disble to return things to the number like it was in the original mod 14 years ago

Generally good idea.
Problems: Does not account for metal distribution, aka if there are supermexes etc.
Not a big problem at all.



Sidenote for more information ingame:
Chilli Deluxe Player List allows you to see your teams metal income in game, as well as the storage of everyone in your team. Can recommend it, do not know about current performance.

DErankkatastrophe: thanks, I use Chilli Deluxe but it is not default AFAIK and anyhow would not give noobs a feeling of how much of the metal of the map they could take (and that should ignore energy anyhow). Ideally would be good to tell team "hey we control only 30% of metal, look at the number up right => this means we are loosing".
