So I'm setting up my indicators for a map, and I'm finding some things limiting in these two entities env_indicator_ow and env_hint_ow. I would find it really useful if env_indicator_ow had the options for the text label colors that env_hint_ow has. It would also be nice if env_indicator_ow had a display range option similar to the env_hint_ow.

Really what I'm looking for is these two entities combined. I feel it's a little clunky how I'm using it right now.

They started out as completely separate entities, but with every version, we've consolidated a lot of their code. I'm all for combining them, but at this point, we'd rather not make changes that could impact existing maps. So, we might just make them identical (feeding off of the same code).
