Qiurk mech in pop-up desscription #183

Closed GreyW3 closed 4 years ago

GreyW3 commented 4 years ago

Good day. Could you, please, bring quirk of mech to the pop-up description panel that appears above its part? This will help evaluate the significance of the mech before it is assembled. Now mech quirk are not displayed anywhere except the mechlab in refit window. Something like this imageban

This would be a RT issue and the RT quirks work completely different

Why are you posting a RT thing on the mechengineer git?

Adding what quirk item is on a chassis to every description would require adjusting 7800 entries........

GreyW3 commented 4 years ago

I apologize if I wrote to the wrong address. Also, I understand that perhaps the idea is difficult to implement. So this is just an offer. And I can not delete this request\issue.

CptMoore commented 4 years ago

well.. I could add bonus descriptions to mechdefs, what you say @LadyAlekto ? actuator restrictions labels would be something I'd add to ME vanilla via those bonus descriptions

LadyAlekto commented 4 years ago

Actuator restrictions automatically would be awesome

Though it would need to distinguish between omni and normal restriction

I cant see how you could grab a specific fixed installed items description to auto add though

CptMoore commented 4 years ago

If fixed installed items are defined using the fixed equipment array from ChassisDefs then it should be very simple! I would just display the bonus description of the fixed item directly as bonus to the chassis descriptions. I'd need some tag on the item though, just to make sure its displayed... or we could introduce real bonus descriptions on chassis defs.

arm actuator description are now auto added, text can be changed in ME settings and overwritten via ChassisDescription as part of ArmActuatorSupport custom

CptMoore commented 4 years ago

Adding descriptions automatically. Inter mod compatibility is done by having CC be the middle man for modifying descriptions.

if someone wants more bonusDescription support reopen this or open another issue
