UI/UX: Fix alignment with right-aligned stat bars + optimize combat display
BREAKING: Changed format_stat_bar() to right-aligned format
- Bars now left-aligned, emoji+label on right
- Works with Telegram's proportional font (spaces don't work)
- Format: {bar} {percentage}% ({current}/{max}) {emoji} {label}
Combat improvements:
- Show BOTH HP bars on every turn (player + enemy)
- Eliminates redundant enemy HP display
- Better tactical awareness with complete state info
Files modified:
- bot/utils.py: Right-aligned format_stat_bar()
- bot/combat.py: Both HP bars on player/enemy turns
- bot/action_handlers.py: Fixed emoji handling
- bot/combat_handlers.py: Updated combat status display
- docs/development/UI_UX_IMPROVEMENTS.md: Complete documentation
Example output:
██████████ 100% (100/100) ❤️ Your HP

# UI/UX Improvements - Visual Clarity & Consistency

**Date:** October 20, 2025

**Status:** ✅ Complete
|
||||
**Status:** ✅ Complete (Updated)
|

|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Improved visual clarity and consistency across all game interfaces with better alignment, turn indicators, and status bar visibility.
|
||||
Improved visual clarity and consistency across all game interfaces with right-aligned stat bars and optimized combat feedback.
|
||||
|
||||
## Latest Changes (Right-Aligned Format)
|
||||
|
||||
### Problem with Original Approach
|
||||
The initial left-aligned approach with label padding didn't work because **Telegram uses a proportional font**, not monospace. This caused misalignment:
|
||||
```
|
||||
❤️ HP: █████████░ 92% (111/120) ← Spaces don't align
|
||||
⚡️ Stamina: ██████████ 100% (50/50) ← Different widths
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution: Right-Aligned Labels
|
||||
Changed to **right-aligned format** where bars start at the left edge (which always aligns), and emoji+label are at the end:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
█████████░ 92% (111/120) ❤️ HP
|
||||
██████████ 100% (50/50) ⚡ Stamina
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why this works:**
|
||||
- ✅ Bars are always left-aligned (start at same position)
|
||||
- ✅ Varying label lengths are at the END, where alignment doesn't matter
|
||||
- ✅ Works perfectly with proportional fonts
|
||||
- ✅ Clean, professional look
|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Implemented
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **Aligned Status Bars**
|
||||
### 1. **Right-Aligned Status Bars**
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** HP and Stamina labels had different lengths, causing misalignment:
|
||||
```
|
||||
❤️ HP: ███████░░░ 70% (70/100)
|
||||
⚡ Stamina: █████░░░░░ 50% (50/100)
|
||||
^ Not aligned
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Added label padding in `format_stat_bar()`:
|
||||
**Updated function signature:**
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def format_stat_bar(label: str, emoji: str, current: int, maximum: int,
|
||||
bar_length: int = 10, label_width: int = 7) -> str:
|
||||
padded_label = f"{label}:".ljust(label_width + 1)
|
||||
return f"{emoji} {padded_label} {bar} {percentage}% ({current}/{maximum})"
|
||||
"""Right-aligned format: bar first, stats, then emoji + label"""
|
||||
bar = create_progress_bar(current, maximum, bar_length)
|
||||
percentage = int((current / maximum * 100)) if maximum > 0 else 0
|
||||
|
||||
if emoji:
|
||||
return f"{bar} {percentage}% ({current}/{maximum}) {emoji} {label}"
|
||||
else:
|
||||
return f"{bar} {percentage}% ({current}/{maximum}) {label}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:**
|
||||
**Result everywhere:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
❤️ HP: ███████░░░ 70% (70/100)
|
||||
⚡ Stamina: █████░░░░░ 50% (50/100)
|
||||
^ Perfectly aligned!
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **Clear Combat Turn Indicators**
|
||||
### 2. **Optimized Combat Display**
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** Combat messages could be confusing - couldn't tell whose turn it was.
|
||||
**Problem:** Enemy health bar was shown TWICE per combat round:
|
||||
- Player attacks → Shows enemy HP
|
||||
- Enemy attacks → Shows player HP + enemy HP again (redundant!)
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Added visual separators for turns:
|
||||
**Solution:** Show BOTH health bars on EVERY turn for complete combat state visibility.
|
||||
|
||||
**Player Attack:**
|
||||
**Player's Turn:**
|
||||
```
|
||||

||||
### 3. **HP/Stamina Bars in Inventory**
|
||||
**Benefits:**
|
||||
- ✅ Always see full combat state
|
||||
- ✅ No redundant information
|
||||
- ✅ Consistent display every turn
|
||||
- ✅ Better tactical awareness
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** Couldn't see current HP/Stamina when using items - had to back out to check.
|
||||
### 3. **Consistent Combat Initiation**
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Added status bars to inventory views:
|
||||
|
||||
**Inventory Menu:**
|
||||
All combat starts now show both health bars in the same order:

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### 5. **Consistent Section Separators**
|
||||
|
||||
Used `━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━` (20 chars) consistently to separate:
|
||||
- Status from description (main menu)
|
||||
- Status from action results (inventory use)
|
||||
- Turn actions from combat status (combat)
|
||||
|
||||
## Files Modified

||||
|
||||
### `bot/utils.py`
|

- **Old:** `{emoji} {padded_label} {bar} {percentage}%`
|
||||
- **New:** `{bar} {percentage}% ({current}/{maximum}) {emoji} {label}`
|
||||
- **Reason:** Works with Telegram's proportional font - bars align left, labels on right
|
||||
|
||||
### `bot/combat.py`

|
||||

- **Updated:** `npc_attack()` - Shows BOTH HP bars (consistent view)
|
||||
- **Benefit:** Complete combat state visibility on every turn
|
||||
|
||||
### `bot/action_handlers.py`
|
||||

|
||||
- Now separates equipment/stats from location description
|
||||
- **Updated:** Combat initiation messages to use new format
|
||||
- **Fixed:** Changed `format_stat_bar(f"{emoji} Enemy HP", "", ...)` to `format_stat_bar("Enemy HP", emoji, ...)`
|
||||
- **Consistent:** All combat displays now use same emoji+label pattern
|
||||
|
||||
### `bot/combat_handlers.py`
|
||||
- **Updated:** Combat status display to use new right-aligned format
|
||||
- **Fixed:** Emoji handling for enemy health bars
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
- Works perfectly with new right-aligned display
|
||||
|
||||
### `bot/profile_handlers.py`

## Technical Details
|
||||
|
||||
**Right-Aligned Format Logic:**
|
||||
1. Progress bar is FIXED WIDTH (10 characters of █ and ░)
|
||||
2. Bars always start at left edge → perfect alignment
|
||||
3. Percentage and numbers are VARIABLE WIDTH (but that's OK)
|
||||
4. Emoji and label are at the END → alignment doesn't matter
|
||||
5. Works with ANY font (monospace or proportional)
|
||||
|
||||
**Combat Display Strategy:**
|
||||
- **Consistency:** Both HP bars shown on every turn
|
||||
- **Clarity:** Turn headers clearly indicate whose turn
|
||||
- **Completeness:** Player always has full tactical information
|
||||
- **Efficiency:** No redundant information
|
||||
|
||||
## Future Enhancements

||||

||||

||||
