Title: [DONE][Suggestion] Ground Page Numeration
Post by: Delian on August 14, 2024, 05:06:34 pm
For people who always want to bring everything with them on a mission (not me), in soldier inventory, if there's more than 1 page of items on the GROUND, it would be helpful to show page numeration (for instance, like on the screenshot).

Similarly, the Scroll Right button should also only appear if there's more than 1 page of items on the ground.

Very simple QoL improvement, i think it might easily be done, like ammo count in bootyopedia, so +1

Sometimes it's easier to click on the Scroll Right button than to type in search, but at times that can be confusing. Without numeration it's difficult to remember which page a certain item was on. And if you don't know how many pages there are, you can keep going in circles without knowing that you're going in circles.

Especially if there are 63 pages of "stuff".

Better not bring 63 pages of stuff with you then!

Done.

  STR_GROUND: "GROUND {0}/{1}"

Thanks. This should make equipping units a bit easier.

Im assuming this is a basic UI QoL improvement that doesnt require a specific mod to function? I loaded my old save and it isnt showing the number next to the "ground" but I have more than 1 "page" of ground items. Is there a setting I have to turn on in the OXE settings or a config option I need to change like the show unit slot number option?

You need to change the STR_GROUND translation as listed 3 posts above.

In the file of the language you are using, located in the folder /standard/xcom1/Language/
If you play TFTD, then in the folder /standard/xcom2/Language/

I guess it's not a very useful QoL feature if it's disabled by default, and hidden, not even as an option, but as a custom translation that an average player will never know exists.

You can create a mini-mod called Ground Page Numeration and upload it to the mod portal, for the average player to find.

Or ask a mod author to integrate it into their mod.
