It should be possible to display a number on or above the hedgehog which shows the number of turns left until this hedgehog will become active.

“0” means the hedgehog in question is currently active.
“1” means the hedgehog will become active in the next turn.
“2” means the hedgehog will become active in 2 turns.
And so on.

By “become active” I just mean that the hedgehog is chosen initially by the game at the beginning of the turn. The number of “switch hog” available does not matter here.

This feature would be very useful for strategical purposes so you know better which hedgehog you must/should attack next. Often enough, you initially do not even know the turn order of enemy hedgehogs if your enemy uses a new team or changed the hedgehog names.
Sometimes, it is even worse because the enemy hedgehogs have all identical names.
And even if you know the hedgehog order, it is inconvenient to remember it.
But your enemy could effectively obscure the hedgehog order by changing or shuffling the hog names each match. So you can never be sure you actually know the true hedgehog order until the first round is over.

So I think this feature is quite important.

This number system also needs to take frozen hedgehogs into account. Also note that these turn numbers must of course be updated each turn. They also need to be updated when a hedgehog dies, disappears, travels in time or returns from time travel. And maybe a number of other events I forgot.

I am not entirely sure how this number could be displayed.
Maybe as additional tag.
Maybe as an additional tag, but left of the name tag (should be visually seperated).
Maybe as overlay while you are holding down a new (!) key, like in the recent feature addition of the number overlay for speech bubble chat.

What do you think about this suggestion?
Does it sound sane to you?
