Maybe consider some slight visual distinction for a parameter that is maxed... even I forget what the maxes are at times.

Perhaps a check mark instead of a number when a parameter is finished.

That is hot.

Would it be possible to routinely reorder the player icons with the current generation start player on top, instead of needing the extra "1" symbol?

Also, I like the VCR buttons. But I would have said that the three states "my turn / waiting for my turn / out for the round" actually map pretty nicely to the VCR icons for "play / pause / stop", so what if we used those? I'm aware that people who didn't grow up with literal VCRs as I did may be less familiar with the stop icon than the others, but... so what?

Again though, this would be awesome.

@kevinb9n The idea is that we want the user icon to always be at the bottom, consistent with the resource table during the game. So we cannot have 1st player always on top.

Closing this with #1500
Let's revisit the player color and turn order later if there is a demand.
