Improve control panel HUD information
The current HUD is rather limited in information transfer. It only communicates:
- Current errors if any
- "Heat remaining"
- Cycles left
I propose that we add this information as well:
- Amount of builder modules using a specific item divided by quantity of the item inside the inventory (giving amount of cycles left until we run out of the item)
- Amount of cycles remaining with current fuel
- Amount of digger heads touching a non-air node and amount of digger heads (with possible division for finding what percentage are extracting materials)
- Amount of traction
This information would be extremely helpful whilst mining. If one encounters a massive cave, they can see how the digger heads encounter more and more air. One can know when to refuel or refil items allowing a more streamlined experience, allowing a digtron to mine whilst new materials are being made.
