Work In Progress / How to improve the Laser weapon

« on: July 30, 2016, 08:18:16 pm »

I would like to make the LASER weapon looks better and more useful. I did the images but some of them are not good. Images of handobs for HEAVY LASER can be improved. I will be happy, if somebody can help me with this. Thank you.

Also, it will be great, if somebody can help me with translation these strings into your language:

      STR_LASER_PISTOL_UFOPEDIA: "Laser technology turn into minimum size. Fire range and accuracy are sacrified to get mobile using and powerful shooting comparing to the conventional pistol."
      STR_LASER_RIFLE_UFOPEDIA: "Adaptation of laser technology for using in the combat. This device is superior to the standard rifle, but due to the overheating is not able to conduct a quick fire."
      STR_HEAVY_LASER_UFOPEDIA: "This shotgun is able to fire three laser beams at once. Unfortunately, severe overheating does not allow to fire too often. But it has immense power and infinite ammunition."

      STR_LASER_WEAPONS: "Laser Weapons"
      STR_LASER_WEAPONS_UFOPEDIA: "Through experiments on Elerium-115 were discovered a unique opportunity to create a beam of light capable of transmitting power over distances. Using alien alloys and crystals of Ellerium-115 are possible to build a new type of weapon that will have a lot more ammunition and will not be less effective than the conventional weapons.{NEWLINE}{NEWLINE}It is necessary to develop as soon as possible a laser cannon using the UFO Navigation."

      STR_HEAVY_LASER_UFOPEDIA: "Лазерный дробовик способен выпускать 3 луча одновременно. К сожалению, сильный перегрев не позволяет вести огонь слишком часто, что компенсируется огромной мощью и бесконечным боезапасом."

      STR_LASER_WEAPONS_UFOPEDIA: "Проводя эксперименты над Элериум-115, была обнаружена уникальная возможность создавать луч света, способный передавать энергию на расстояния.

Suggestions / Sorting items on soldier's inventory screen

« on: July 23, 2016, 11:19:38 pm »

I have no idea, how does the game put items on the floor in the inventory screen, but it is really uncomfortable. It will be good, if the items are sorted by their listOrder value. It means, PISTOL should be placed first, PISTOL clip should be second and nearby the PISTOL, RIFLE and RIFLE CLIP are next... etc.

Can someone correct it?

Suggestions / Drawing corpses and weapons on the floor (a small problem in the game)

« on: July 21, 2016, 04:14:27 pm »

How I realized, the game draws icon of the heaviest item on the floor in the battlescape. If there are a corpse and a weapon in the same cell and the weapon are heaviest that corpse then the player will not see the corpse. On the images you can see the differences (second image contains weapons that heavier corpses).

I think, it will be great, if the game paints corpses before items, regardless their weights.
