Hello. I want to request a feature - a check and rule for player's dead or unconscious soldiers to display a proper body bigob, female or male depending on gender. Something like bigSpriteAlter or similar. Making a whole separate unit types for this is kinda complicated and not worth it in general.

This is already done, you could even animate it if you want. Look for scripts that alter item graphic.
-
That's great to know but what about modders that not familiar with scripting? That's not an easy stuff to roll in w/o some background imo.
-
Yes, but alternative is that I will add that you ask in next year or two because when I can spend time on OXCE I have bugs to fix or more critical functionalities to implement.
-
That's understandable, no one making you to drop everything and fullfil my request. I hope that it will be eventually implemented when it's possible. I'll try to figure out how to script by myself then.

Jumping to y-scripting would be still really useful for any modder, as it really extends your options. Use Pedro's Linker to get highlights, it's easier to work with it. And don't be afraid to try, you can always use some help in my discord.
It was not easy for me to get into it too, I also had 0 experience at coding. But now I use it quite often; even with coding own fork, sometimes it's way better to use YS.

>Pedro's Linker
That's extension for VS code, right? Can't find it in store tho.
UPD: Nevermind, managed to find it. Thanks for the tip.
