The bars under the buttons in the game window are not used at the moment, but would be VERY helpful in game if they would for example show the foraging progress. If I start foraging, this bar could change colour and could change colour back again like our XP stockpile in MyForge from right to left as the foraging goes on. So we could see right away if our foraging is finished ... and same would go for fighting, spying or healing of the vulc.
Good example to show how useful that would be is if I do my landmarkrun and let the Vulc forage during running, I sometimes dont know if it is still foraging or already just running after me ... because it didnt find anything and in that case I dont get a message on the bottom-right about the findings. Getting a message box in case of not finding anything would also helpful in that case btw :)
