A GUI change you might consider.

ok this only deals with the Health and Energy bars since there the only ones that indicates regen/degen.

And thats what I want for them to change; the arrows of regen/degen are confined within the box; however the #'s are not.

Short and sweet; I would like to see arrows of regen/degen not confined within the box
e.g.
(____40>>>>>) (confined)
(____40>>>>>)>>> (not-confined)

Can't really say i support this, it seems like it'd just make things messy, especially if you put your health and energy bars side by side like i do.

Well here consider these examples; I personally would prefer these examples during real play, regularly.
In both Screen shots I have mending on; and you wont see anytype of regeneration.

Perhaps you should photoshop in what you are considering? Then we could see what you exactly mean.

Lol, maybe they didn't expect you to make your health and energy bars so small.

Anyway I would suggest just displaying the numerical value beside either of the bars, this way you don't have to count up the number of arrows to know how much the regen is.

OK first pictures I posted; I have mending on well i dont know why I didnt leave room for arrows on energy by uing a -1 item and 3 enchantmens (i was tired ok? im artistic when im tired i dont always think things thru)
