An idea to update UI for future Killers in 2v8

The general idea is to move Class Icon into basically similar spot to where Survivor Portrait and function as basically "second head" for them.

That way, if a Survivor is affected by 2 Killers, each affecting Status HUD, the "first head" will be reserved for, in this case, Plague while other Icon for Artist, in this case.

The Killer release order/ID determines which Killer is on the left part meaning that in this example, Knight will be after Artist in this case. That way, in my opinion, would minimize the potential bugs of Icons overlapping

In case of only 1 Killer affecting the HUD out of 2 Killers, it's obvious that only the Survivor Portrait would be changed.

If there are 2 Killers and Survivor is affected by "newer" Killer, the Class Icon would be affected only.



I think that would've been the cleanest way to do it, the only issue might be that, let's say, there's Hillbilly and Doctor, and the Madness Icon being behind Survivor Class Icon only. I don't think it would be a huge deal but it's something to iron out details after further testing.
