OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: [Suggestion] Crafts List Sorting: Moving Down the List

« on: April 28, 2024, 05:33:35 pm »

That's not even a feature meant for players.

It's just a debug feature (to help transfer a real craft into the "new battle" mode).

But ok, I can think about it a little and add move up/down functions.
Low prio.

OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: [Suggestion] Sell/Buy price coefficients for items

« on: April 28, 2024, 05:27:28 pm »

We have agreed with Yankes to skip this solution... and introduce Y-scripting for sell-prices (and later for buy-prices) directly instead.

Once implemented, I will paste a sample Y-script for hellrazor here.

OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: [Suggestion] Facility Build GUI - Show 4 Requirements

« on: April 28, 2024, 05:16:43 pm »

A probably more annoying to implement way to show a missing 4th resource is to dynamically put the resource that you don't have enough of at the top of the list of requirements.

More annoying, but more acceptable for me than f-ing up the GUI or adding some crazy scrollbar.

If this would be enough, I can do it.

OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: [Suggestion] UFO spawned when mission site expires

« on: April 28, 2024, 05:11:26 pm »

So, in other words, you are asking for mission sites instead of landing sites?

Should it be the original landing UFO (hidden during the duration of the mission), or should it be a completely new auto-magically repaired, restocked and remanned UFO (in worst case even a new UFO type)?

OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: Updated: New saving features

« on: April 28, 2024, 04:58:46 pm »

OpenXcom already has more saving options than any other game I can think of... how on earth is that not enough?

I would also like to raise a suggestion... can we start removing some of those options? There's just too many... save, quicksave, autosave, ironman, frequency, slots, autoload, etc.

OXCE Suggestions NEW / Re: [Suggestion] Alternative craft loadout: Hide items

« on: April 28, 2024, 04:45:03 pm »

why not just sell them?

what should happen to the items that are already onboard/equipped but marked as hidden?

how can the player change their decision and un-mark the marked items?

That's not what I said.

I said that higher number (e.g. 20) will not give you higher light intensity, but it will give you higher radius.

I can be wrong, but that's how I remember it from PirateZ.

Tile light levels are between 0 and 15.

Divider between "night" and "day" is 9 or 10 by default, not sure. Can be modded.

Item light level 20 will still illuminate nearby tiles with light level +15 (maximum), but it will spread further (bigger illuminated circle).

OXCE Support / Re: [Answered] Showing dots for research costs in the tech tree viewer

« on: April 26, 2024, 09:01:37 am »

Yes, that's intentional.

Code: [Select]

// Cost indicator
{
std::ostringstream ss;
int cost = rule->getCost();
std::vector<std::pair<int, std::string>> symbol_values
({{100, "#"}, {20, "="}, {5, "-"}});

for (const auto& sym : symbol_values)
{
while (cost >= std::get<0>(sym))
{
cost -= std::get<0>(sym);
ss << std::get<1>(sym);
}
}
if (rule->getCost() < 10)
{
while (cost >= 1)
{
cost -= 1;
ss << ".";
}
}
_txtCostIndicator->setText(ss.str());
}
