Very hard to see ship range boundaries in Beta 6

Posted on Wednesday, April 29, 2015

Could just be my monitor settings, I suppose.  But ever since Beta 6 dropped. I've been having a very difficult time seeing the range boundaries for ships.  It's always been a very thin line, but in all of the previous betas I had no trouble seeing it when I was looking for it.

Here is a random example (click the images to embiggen):

Can Spot:

Pulling back, it gets harder to see, but not impossible...

Getting Fainter:

And if I pull back all the way, it becomes nearly impossible to see unless I am really looking for it.

Where am I again?

It becomes much worse if I move around map, and/or the range line hits something particularly bright in the background.

I don't know if this has anything to due with the recent change to graphics, but thickening/making the range line stand out a bit more would be very welcome. I don't have the eyes of a 16 year old anymore, after all.
