would stream watchers like more debug drawing?

Question for stream watchers: Would you like some debug drawing turned on? Steamhammer traditionally runs showing only the game info and production queue. Maybe it would be fun to see more? Possibilities: Unit orders (what each unit is doing all the time—including what mineral patches are doing, namely nothing!), squad info (each squad’s order, target location, and retreat status), zerg strategy boss info (basics of zerg strategy decisions). I don’t want to turn on more than one of these at a time, but maybe I could change the settings now and again.

I like when bots do debug info, it gives some insight into what the bot's "thinking" and more importantly into what sort of things the bot author has been considering lately.

The info that's tied to the map tends to be the most interesting.

Attrition would be good, showed as a percentage -

Cost of enemy units killed in LOS : cost of friendly units lost

Eg. killing 300 mineral of units, losing 200 mineral of units, would see Attrition at 150%

In a ZvZ mirror or macro game it would give some idea of how efficiently SH is managing its forces/tactics/micro compared to its opponent.

Watcher on :

Unit orders would definitely be interesting to see, along with move/attack/retreat etc. status

Zerg strategy boss info would be fun as well.
