The goal was to be able to know if there was an ongoing session. You can see some informations about the ongoing session associated with the files before continuing them from the file select screen:
is there an ongoing session
is the map available
map name (SID if not available)
map "chapter" (the text displayed above the area name on the banner)
-> is it customizable in Everest? If it is, I need to make the session details compatible
map title banner ("title" and "accent")
map mode (nothing for A sides, an indicator for B or C side)
session time
deaths counter
has the map already been completed on this save file
berry counter
berry list
-> like the one at the bottom of the when in pause
-> only if the map has already been completed
-> scales to not take too much space
It addresses issue #439.
Implementation
adds a SessionDetailsPage entity that stores the relevant informations of a session to render them, and can be updated to switch sessions (the berry list is baked into a virtual render target)
adds ref to a SessionDetailsPage instance in OuiFileSelect
modifies OuiFileSelect.Update() to modify input capture
modifies the IL patch on OuiFileSelectSlot.Render to change ticket rendering position based on a the OuiFileSelectSlot.ticketRenderPosition property (added by this change too) to make the ticket move depending on OuiFileSelect.SessionDetailsEase
modifies the OuiFileSelectSlot.IdlePosition to shift the slots idle position to the left when showing session details
modifies Overworld.InputEntity and Overworld.Update() to show the input prompt for toggling session details in the bottom right of the screen with "Confirm" and "Cancel"
Compatibility
AltSideHelper
I don't know what needs to be exposed and how.
For now I did put into (private) fields of SessionDetailsPage the things that I think are relevant for AltSide compat
CollabUtils2
Maybe being able to see the icon and the name of the lobby the map is associated with would be great.
-> for example, Strawberry jam maps will display their sub-difficulty indicator as their icon
Save slots manipulation
There is the idea of being adding the possibility to move save slots. I also thought about being able to erase a slot (so every slot below it get moved up by one).
We need to think of a way to cleanly allow those save slots operations without conflicts. For now there is a mod for moving slots (https://gamebanana.com/mods/539280), but it also uses the journal key (I actually didn't test the interaction between this mod and my patches)
Issues / things to add
Things I just noticed I need to fix, or I think would be (more or less) relevant to consider doing/adding in continuation to the initial commit, at some point in time or never, by someone else or me, in Everest or in a mod.... I don't know, and I'm asking you about what you think (maybe that's not the right place to do that for some of them):
allow for configuration of the keybind (currently hardcoded as the Journal key)
rename SessionDetailsPage to OuiFileSelectSessionDetailsPage and move it to a seperate file
add a public bool ShowSessionDetailsUI field to Overworld and update it from OuiFileSelect instead of harcoding the check in Overworld.Update()
translation of the few new dialogs (currently there's only english and french)
backpack icon on the card to tell if there is an ongoing session at first glance without looking at the details
show collectables collected during the session (cassette / hearthgem)
put the journal time icon next to the session time
add a warning that if the map isn't loaded, then the session details may be different from what is espected
-> apart from the name, chapter, and area icon, there is also: custom banner (title and accent), tab, mode icon (for B and C sides)
show the mode icon for the A-side if it's a custom one?
add an indicator of "position in the map" using the berry list
a way to cache session details infos so we can show them even if the map isn't available (still indicate somewhere if the map is available or not)
a few things about campaigns
being able to see all the campaigns you played for each savefile
being able to store up to one ongoing session per campaign for each file slot
-> maybe add something LevelSetPicker-like between the ticket and session details page to move between played campaigns (use the savedata total playtime of the areas in the levelset to determine?) that can navigate between played campaigns when viewing session details
changing the rendered card, ticket and session details to match the selected campaign
being able to access an easier way to select the campaign, a bit like the map search that you can access from chapter select screen (maybe also add that to the LevelSetPicker)
-> by pressing confirm?
