UI Improvements Part 2: UI Optimization/Integration (NOT DESIGN)

Right now you can separately access different parts of info inside Freerun:
F7: Statistics (more info: https://www.nfssa.com/thread-7116.html)
F9: Help
F10: Progress & Rewards
F11: Settings

They're not even guided in Help section, so newbies gonna have some time crashing their brains...

NOTE: These applies inside safehouses whereas possible

Anyway. First off they're ditched there, probably stayed the same for a year. So there's a lot of thing lacking compared to what you can access in safehouses.
And since there might be a lot of stuffs in the future, I suppose to merge them into fewer sections. And that means fewer keys is used for accessing stuffs. Easier for newbies.
-------------------------------------------
A. PLAYER DASHBOARD - bind as F2
Here merges Statistics, Magazines, Ranking, (Tasks, Unlockables, Progression - split from Progress & Rewards), Crew, Police Pursuits and anything that meets the criteria.
They mostly stayed what's they got right now, just separated inside of sub-tabs inside this dashboard.

A.1 Statistics
Here shows the avatar player has chosen from the beginning, and all those info existed with additional stuffs that's missed (i.e. Pursuit stats). I think there's much more needs to added so probably I'll post more ideas in this section in case I gathered enough shits. Or just any admins hit me up in Discord or here.
Current missing info: Total Bounty, Wrecked cops, tagged cops, longest Pursuit time, car with highest bounty, Cars Owned, Cars Unlocked, Top Times earned (lifetime & weekly, if there's a way to retrieve info), etc. I'll make one full list for this one specifically later.

A.2 Magazines
Nothing much, just the same thing from safehouses.

A.3 Ranking
No changes needed.

Progress & Rewards:
A.4 Tasks
A.5 Unlockables
A.6 Progression
This part should be split into separate sections. More down below.
Tasks (standalone section - unchanged) 
Unlockables (merge Unique cars & Rewards)
Progression (both car progression and player's - more info soon)

A.7 Crew
I'd probably not talk about this as the system is probably in development for advanced functions. Changes or not depends on what will happen after advanced crew system is there.

A.8 Police Pursuits
Modify this into something similar as Most Wanted's Rap Sheet. Pretty much toptimes for pursuits.
-----------------------------------------
B. HELP SECTION - rebind as F1 (HUD On/Off rebind as F11)
(Side note: the grammar/spelling are broken in some parts, needs proof-read.)
This lacks updating. A lot of info has missed here, included the one I mentioned upside.

B.1 Server Rules
skip this. no info needed.

B.2 Start (rename as Introduction)
Just needs to update something more like Discord websites. Imo needs rewritten. Hit me up if admins wants to but lack of manpower.

B.3 Chat
One thing: due the the color of UI the arrows on either sides are barely noticeable. Make them visible enough, or just merge. Since the spaces is quite large actually.
Needs to mention 'J' key as crew channel.

B.4 Rewards & Unlockables
Each type of reward should be split into separated pages - with additional info on vinyl runs, freerun money, etc.

B.5 Freerun
Freerun money, vinyl run, and any stuff that you'll met when hooning around the map

B.6 (NEW) Races - split into subsections
Circuit, Sprint, Speedtrap, Drift, Drag, Street-X, Off-road, Time-trial, URL, Duels.
Quick Race and Custom Races too.

B.7 (NEW) Player Dashboard
A little info on what it does: a hub for everything needed.

B.8 (NEW) Leaderboard rewards
as what's posted in forum. move it here.

B.9 (NEW) Pursuits
Everything of it, from intro to heat levels, bounty, pursuit breakers, cooldown spots etc.

B10. (NEW) Settings & Keybinds
Keybinds and whatever inside settings panel - to give info on how they works.

B.11 Premium Info
Just update to include added features.

B.12 FAQ
Misc stuff, should add more questions since there's some stuffs remain 'unanswered' - as they're not in this section. just in case people asks in chats.
i.e. out of RAM warning (white cars)

B.13 (NEW) More about NFS:SA
Leave anything fancy here. Patreon and stuff.
-----------------------------------------------
C. SETTINGS - F10
Not much changes needed. Minor changes might be required to adapt suggestions above.
-----------------------------------------------

You reached here? Impressive. Longest post I've made by now...
anyway, if you got any ideas, post them here.

More posts coming soon... Up next: Statistics panel
