Rename "Aliens Held" to "Alien Storage Capacity" for clarity #1470

Closed XCOM-HUB closed 3 months ago

XCOM-HUB commented 3 months ago

I think it is misleading to have it say "Aliens Held" because that indicates that there are 20 Aliens currently held inside the Bio-Transport Module.

PS: If "Alien Storage Capacity" is too long, replace it with "Capacity" or "Alien Capacity". Aliens Held

What's the difference between "Storage" and "Aliens Held/Capacity" in this context?

FilmBoy84 commented 3 months ago

Maybe go with Max Lifeforms or Max Samples?

Both of these should fit and are more ambiguous (for mods that allow none-alien biological items) whilst still being specific enough to know what the string refers to

XCOM-HUB commented 3 months ago

@ayrtondenner I believe "Storage" in this context could be storage for dead aliens, while "Aliens Held" is counting each living life form.

@FilmBoy84 I think "Max Lifeforms" is the better alternative 👍

@XCOM-HUB I just remembered: "Storage" is how much storage an item is occupying in base. Hope we find a better name for that in the future.

Maybe "Storage Units" is a better alternative to just "Storage"!?
