[FEATURE] New variable - LineIdentifier + LastStopLine or option to use multiple variables per item #11

Open GameBurrow opened 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would save me a lot of time if there would be an additional CurrentVehicle variable: LineIdentifier LastStopName, that allows me to easily create the destination displays for buses/trams etc. Right now as far as I can see, like with WTS I have to puzzle them together from 2 different items which is pain to get properly sized and ligned

Describe the solution you'd like Add a new variable that is LineIdentifier LastStopName

Describe alternatives you've considered Allow us to puzzle multiple variables into one item text

Additional context Right now to create something like this, i need to use 3 different items: image image image

If I could join variables together, I could make entire display out of 1 item.

As alternative, for now you can use the option "Text Sequence" for the text content type, then the value will be shown for time set in Duration column (in frames): image

The concatenation of variables are not that simple it seems because there are some parameters like the joining string, and also this have an issue with the cache control, very optimized by now that can impact in performance - even the WE performance not being an issue nowadays.
