Like they're just not descriptive enough... like I generally understand what they all mean but there's one where it's like two diamonds and a small diamond between them or something? Idk just I want a list of them all and what they mean, please

    From the 6.2.0 patch notes:

    • The in-game connection indicator has been improved to show more detailed information during connection issues stemming from ping and packet loss
      • Ping is represented by a vertical bar iconYellow = Ping over 100ms
      • Red = Ping over 200ms
      • Packet Loss is represented by a double-diamond iconYellow = 2%-5% packet loss
      • Red = More than 5% packet loss
    • Your own Ping / Packet Loss icons are displayed above the Survivor List
      • Players are notified when another player is experiencing severe connection issues (Red for Ping / Packet Loss)For Killer issues: A unique red icon appears above the Survivor List for Survivors
      • For Survivor issues: A red bar appears next to their name on the Survivor List
