I like the idea of a mouse scrolling method for the battlescape, that's certainly something that has been long missing. to me, however, your way seems counter-intuitive: for mouse-scrolling I would always assume that it works as though you are grabbing the landscape and pulling into a direction by moving. your way is exactly the other way around: you hold the mouse, and when you move the mouse, the landscape is moving into the opposite direction.
Actually it shows you the place where you move the mouse.
This is the way OpenTTD also works! (and i've got the idea primarily from TTD/OpenTTD)
Maybe we can have a "Invert" switch in the configuration, that way everyone can have what feels natural to them..
That's an other good idea!!
And it will be implemented i think. (if not nowadays by me, then later someone else)
I disagree with the coding scheme ... it's preference...
Not for me...
It considerably slows down my work.
ISO standard of indenting and spacing,
Just for curiosity, could you please give me a reference, where it is officially stated, that this indenting and spacing is the ISO? (i haven't found any)
which is by default the style if you start a project with Visual Studio.
That's the first thing i change by loading back my configuration after an install.
Anyways it's a non-issue since there's plenty of tools to automatically apply coding styles (eg. Artistic Style), so you can just convert the project to your favorite convention, do your stuff and restore it back when you're done. Everybody wins.
Wow! Long time i planned to make such a thing to avoid these situations. Its good to know, that somebody already done this!
Thanks for the link!
Today I celebrate my 2 years with openxcom, it was October 17, 2010 when I first presented the little community we had those days with a screenshot of the battlescape. One day later I presented SupSuper with a 1787 lines long patch file, which contained the earliest battlescape: it loaded a map and you could scroll around. Everyone was excited about that back then
Go back to page 1 of this thread if you want to get that feeling again
Congratulations
