Request: change some in game text to pop up help text #260

Closed tmr83 closed 1 year ago

I have these images:

Iautogrant

Iautotax

They are poorly sized for the manual.

Can the text in parenthesis be changed to pop up help text when hovering over the 30-100 buttons?

the3dfxdude commented 1 year ago

I guess so. But you can just crop it out of the picture for the manual now. It doesn't have to look 100% like what is in the game. There may be other things that won't match the game manual as the interface becomes more dynamic.

tmr83 commented 1 year ago

I did try your suggestion one time, but I was preferring graphics more to the original then. Should be fine because the manual has nearby text similar to what's in the graphics.

tmr83 commented 1 year ago

There's not really a need to keep this open if we go with modifying the graphics instead of adding help text.

I'm still hoping to finish up a few things for the manual. Sorry tho, I'm really slow.

the3dfxdude commented 1 year ago

Oh, I am trying to consider the use of a pop up. But maybe not a pop up over the text itself as I think that might not be intuitive. Could be over the buttons instead.

This is a good idea. Migrating suggestion tracking to 7kfans.com forum. https://7kfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1296
