Feature request: Add the ability to sort upgrades by certain parameters #5

Closed Frizy13 closed 2 years ago

Frizy13 commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would be nice to be able to sort upgrades by damage, price, or amount of health added.

Describe the solution you'd like For each option, there will be a corresponding sorting column at the top of the upgrade menu.

This is something I think would be useful as well, but since it's a significant change of the UI I think it belongs more in InfiniteShooter 0.5.0. Problem is, though, since I'm planning on adding more ships and lasers I might to do a complete overhaul of the upgrades screen. I'm planning on making it probably styled more like Tyrian (source port). If InfiniteShooter does add an option to sort upgrades, it'll have to be designed to be keyboard/gamepad-first, which likely means redoing code for SelectSquare.tscn

I just wrote some code in upgrade-list-sorting that relies on the new UI and should allow for sorting the upgrades menu. I'm not using any built-in functions with the Container node, but I think this is simple and "just works" already so I don't see any point in rewriting it at the moment.

Oh and if you want to try it without having to play though a level of the game, you just need to add the line

func _ready(): show_animated()

to Upgrades.gd and then selectively run Upgrades.tscn

Seeing it as I haven't come across any issues in upgrade-list-sorting for a while I think it's good to merge code and close this issue now.
