Tooltip for factions in lobby

[KDR_11k]

It would be nice if you could attach a tooltip or description to your mod's factions that show in the lobby so people can see more than just the name and maybe learn some faction-specific things or just a "second faction since Spring.exe requires it".

add it somewhere in the mod, and we'll implement it when we'll have time ... we have a lua parser now, you can make a lobby.lua, and we'll add every other things for the lobby there, like default boxes, default colors etc etc

Feel free to start a discussion with other content developers and lobby developers about how this should be defined!

that sounds really cool, I liked the default colors thing also!

Dude that would be really neat if you ever get around to it.

Name the tags and you'll get data, can't do anything without tags though.

I suggest you describe your factions in your online manual.

That would require users to RTFM which is something users don't do.

I have seen people playing gundam, so I join their game, they have no idea who I am, they do not associate me as anyone so I start a dialogue. I have yet to meet a user who knew that there was a fucking online manual

If they complain about misinformation you have a answer to give then :)

Not in 77.

Why only for sides? I would also like unit descriptions for example so widgets could display a bit more about them (maybe even good-against, bad-against unit IDs or whatever infos might be useful). Sure, for a mod like BA providing all that extra info is a lot of work but imo we should just define a format so everyone can..

We can use customParams for those, the problem is we can't display anything custom until the game starts at which point people have already picked their faction.
