E.g. Ship X is currently negating 30% of damage and the DoT is applied, the timer would be off completely.
The nearest thing you could do would be one of two things;
Some kind of hull breach klaxon and even then it wouldn't fit as klaxons for the different factions would all be different.
Some kind of particle effect with the words hull breach detected pointing to the ship but as it would be applied by the flood, this again would not fit as per alternative factions (Human/Covenent/Forerunner languages namely) and it being applied by what is essentially a pirate faction would mean it would have to be a generic particle that fits all.
Particle wise, the most logical choice would be some kind of infection cloud I would assume, with some kind of generic warning symbol, perhaps a forerunner one as that *could* work for all factions technically to a degree. I say technically as most ships would have some form of AI and you could pass that symbol off as the AI's having some basic knowledge of forerunner symbology in whatever era SotP takes place. That way you can retain accuracy of canon and still make it a flashy warning things are about to turn into a bag of dicks once that thing drops to the DoT.

It's enough to drain your enemy's economy by making them put defenses up on every planet, but doesn't break the game.
Apologies if this has already been suggested though.

Just a thought after watching the latest video you guys released. Why not make the research that Infection is based off of more like its TEC counterpart? "Insurrectionist Allies" like with Cole's wife who helped during his final battle with the UNSC, that sends the occasional task force of non-upgraded rogue Charon and Paris frigates, Mako corvettes, and maybe Thanatos Destroyers as well.

i was actually about to suggest this idea if infection is permanently removed
