Title: Piratez 0.99A.1 TechTreeViewer (partial)
Post by: Imeryak on November 22, 2015, 02:30:20 pm
This tool (https://techtreeviewer.byethost9.com/) will show you all direct and some indirect dependencies for selected project.

1) Type project name (or part of it) on text field in top-left corner.
2) Select project from dropdown list.
3) Wait...
4) Browse dependencies (If you dont know difference between different link types, you can find details here (https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Ruleset_Reference_(OpenXcom)#Research))
5) To select different project bubble just double click/tap it.

UPD #1: Added support for older versions of the mod.
UPD #2: Back and forward browser buttons should work now.
UPD #3: New version with better mobile devices support here (https://techtreeviewer.byethost9.com/ufo_vis). Can be used on desktop pc too, but for now it lacking some things from the old one.

Super, thank you!!!!! <3

I'd like to humbly suggest that instead the blank field Select project: i'd use a dropdown menu wiht selecting tabs, maybe as an alternative. Also, why don't pack inside a folder labelled "Extended Piratex tech viewer?

[...]
6) Browse dependencies (If you dont know difference between different link types, you can find details here (https://"https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Ruleset_Reference_(OpenXcom)#Research"))

Sorry but the link at point 6) is broken :,(  Tested on linux ubuntu 14.04 with firefox 42, no problems.

Edit: actuyally there are, some topic like "Assault weapons" typed in the box do not show..

Edit ": some are bugged, screenshot attached :)

It can be done, but will take some time.

Done.

Fixed.

Edit: actuyally there are, some topic like "Assault weapons" typed in the box do not show..

Some research dependencies are broken. Added an [Unknown] items that required by it, but actually not in game.
Those can be leftovers from original game of misprints in piratez core file, like "Gauss Ammo Basics", which cannot be researched now.

Edit ": some are bugged, screenshot attached :)

Not a bug, project has no name, only id string.

I really like this tool, Imeryak! 

@Dioxine: Would you consider "stickying" this thread so its easy to find, when a new version comes out?

This techtree is useful. Its kind of funny how I've got the max amount of bases full of pocket battle ships and nightmares but can't use my codes or make accurate plasma guns yet haha.

Lol! And here I am totally ignoring the Air Game.  Just me, the Bonny, and my Shark Jetbike. ;)

Dude!! Now its web-based??? Terrific! :D

Ok, Wish list time: ;)  (This is completely fluff and luxury stuff so feel completely free to ignore it!)

1- The ability to go "back" - either with the browser arrow, or a button above the topic selection, that would bring you to the previously searched topic.
2- The ability to navigate the tree by clicking on topic bubbles.  (This may be way too hard to do, but it would be awesome)

Thanks again, this tool is priceless!
Cheers, Ivan :D

okay so the last few days i have not been to able to get the viewer to work properly. It doesn't provide a drop down list to inputs. For awhile the problem was solved by using a different browser. Now its the alternative browsers as well. Help?

Its working for me on Chrome. I'd say try clearing the browser cache, but that shouldn't carry across between browsers...

I downloaded last version of firefox, but was not able to replicate bug. Can you provide more info, like browser version and console output?

1- The ability to go "back" - either with the browser arrow, or a button above the topic selection, that would bring you to the previously searched topic.
2- The ability to navigate the tree by clicking on topic bubbles.  (This may be way too hard to do, but it would be awesome)

1) Added in todo list, after bug fixing and zoom feature.
2) You can use doubleclick for that, but only on bubbles with a single text row in it. Selection in multiline bubbles will come in a future. Maybe.

Latest version of firefox on windows 7. It appears to load properly but fails to produce any drop downs for text input. Sometimes it also fails to load the key in the bottom left with identical behavior. I wouldn't worry to much about it. More then likely its due to either my somewhat poor net or my relatively aged machine. It's well past time for a wipe and clean install from the ground up. But since i would like to keep 7 that particular option is no longer open.

What's the problem with reinstalling Windows 7? I just did so recently, worked fine.

In my case i do not have an install disk anymore(7 moves in 3 years stuff goes bye bye) and getting a legit copy is much more of a pain since 10 released.

You can get any Windows 7 install disk and use it, then download the Microsoft tool to change your serial number to your current one. At least it used work without problems.

Tried looking at Martial Arts Training - what is missing is that Xeno Hides Recovery requires you to research a Reaper Corpse at least. I think researching other aux. animals gives it as well.

Imeryak, I'm finding the site difficult to browse on mobile - the click and drag doesn't work for touchscreen, and zoom cannot be enabled - is there anything I can do to make this more mobile-readable?
Title: Re: Piratez 0.99 TechTreeViewer (partial)

Now you can use this  (https://techtreeviewer.byethost9.com/ufo_vis/)on mobile. Slow and greedy, but it works. Kinda.

I'm alright with slow and resource-intensive for the drag scrolling - thank you very much for implementing this!

Let me ask an idiot question about the concept of "dependencies" and how they apply to the online tech browser.

4) Browse dependencies (If you dont know difference between different link types, you can find details here (https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Ruleset_Reference_(OpenXcom)#Research))

I've read the link, but I still don't understand how exactly dependencies work.

Let me present my problem through a specific example: the Zero Tolerance to Zero Tolerance tecnhology has 6 black ("dependency" arrows) pointing at it, from Diplomacy, *The Mutant Alliance*, *Stop Targeting Civilian Traffic*, Cybernetic Interface, Sway Local Govt, and Strange Message (2). Now, does this mean that I can only research Zero Tolerance to Zero Tolerance if I have already research all six of these, or does it mean that I can research any one of these and Zero... becomes researchable? Based on the explanation on the wiki I suspect it's the former, but I'm not quite sure. Also, if it IS the former, does this mean in this specific case that you can NEVER research Zero Tolerance to Zero Tolerance without or before stopping targeting civilian traffic?
Title: Re: Piratez 0.99A.1 TechTreeViewer (partial)
Post by: legionof1 on December 10, 2016, 10:35:06 pm
You are correct it is the former. You do need all six, and therefore must stop targeting civilian traffic.

Not sure whats up with the viewer but there is an in game viewer these days. Access it by middle click on any research topic.
