Reorganise meta.ini and update README #31

Closed EnAppelsin closed 6 years ago

EnAppelsin commented 6 years ago

'Dev' has now reorganised the meta.ini settings into pages - but before release I propose a few cleanups:

  1. Don't have groups if the page is entirely 1 group
  2. Move gameplay/misc into one page (with 2 groups) or onto first tab.
  3. Change the default setting width/height to better show all the options?
  4. Possibly have the/a setting which enables the random stat variables on the same page so you know what disables/enables. (This may require more thought).

Any other suggestions for changes to the meta.ini can be made here to keep track of for a bit.

I noticed you listed a few people as special thanks on the README.

You can add them to your author's list without taking up space by making use of the Credits feature.

Example:

[Author]
Name=Test Author
Credits=1
Group=Special Thanks

Credits=1 will suppress it from showing up on the "About" page of the Mod Launcher and force it into the "Credits" page.

Oh nice, cheers Jake. You should actually be on there too from your early commits

EDIT: Just realised you are on there

With the updated documentation (http://docs.donutteam.com/books/lucas-simpsons-hit-run-mod-launcher/page/about-mods), for number 4 we can put a label setting at the top of the random stats variables page

[Author]
Name=Jake 
Credits=1
Group=Contributing

[Author]
Name=Loren
Credits=1
Group=Contributing

To be consistent with how Jake and I usually list ourselves in our mods, we should probably be listed as Jake "AerHx" Andreøli and Loren "Duck" Goodwin. Otherwise, this will result in us being listed multiple times in the Mod Launcher's author category.

Something to keep in mind if you make this change is that the ø in Jake's name requires the file to be encoded in UTF-8-BOM.

EDIT: I'm tired and wrote a sentence that was basically word soup.

The readme has been updated and meta.ini has been updated with all the changes so far. I am closing this issue as it is believed both are now up to date and ready for a release.
