Summary0021531: Ship icons should be refreshed when stacking / marking up
DescriptionThis post was mostly triggered by the stacking mechanics, it feels weird to see ships randomly exploding while constructing. It was only until I selected my fleet that I realized the death explosions were stacking effects.

The icon for ships should be regenerated on stacking, and while we're at it you might as well update icons when they mark up too.

Also, maybe change the visualization effect for stacking - some kind of white-blue nova with particles ejected towards the ship it stacked into?

I'm pretty sure the ship icons are refreshed when units stack. I agree that some other visual effect might be desirable, but I think it's unlikely to happen before 1.0

They are not, for player ships at least: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it74cZybLTU

Thanks!

* Previously if the number of units contained inside a unit was changed, or if the mark level of a unit changed, that did not change the icon immediately. Instead it would wait for something else, like a health change or a mouseover of it, which could be really confusing.
