Spring RTS Engine

7) rename all included widgets to make them show like
XTA - widgetname
in F11 menu.

Can we sort out a list of widgets that we think would be good to include with xta? Ide like to see included..


Smart area reclaim [Reclaim info widget does not support this ]
Auto reclaim/heal/assist [essential imo]

Currently we have all of these..

• auto quit
  bloom shader xta
  camera shake xta
  cmd_factory manager
  cmd_state_reverse_toggle
  dark bloom shader
  gfx lups manger
  gfp outline
  gui advplayerlist
  gui ally cursor
  gui ally rez
  gui attack aoe xta
  gui buildbar eta xta
  gui build eta xta
  gui ceasefire
  gui centre n select
  gui display dps
  gui fps xta
  gui load screens xta
  gui message separator
  gui metal features
  gui nuke button
  gui pause screenxta
  gui prospector xta
  gui reclaim info xta****
  gui unit groups 5.1 xta
  gui xta defence ranger
  gui xta layout
  init start point remover
  lua wrapps
  moon bloom shader
  unit build bar xta
  unit cloak fire state
  unit custom formations2
  unit dgun stall assist
  unit dont move xta
  unit factory guard xta
  unit health bars
  unit holdfire fix
  unit initial queue
  unit loop select
  unit metal maker xta
  unit stockpile dynamic
  unit stockpile dynamic alt
  unit waypoint dragger
  unit z selector
  xta gfx night

Does anyone actually use all of these regularly? And wouldnt it be nice if they were organised into eco/interface/helper/fx etc.... Personally i find it difficult to find something quickly in the f11 menu. Is there any way to make some organising front end system thats better than just f11 view?

Or just go through them like..

XTA - Eco - blabla.lua
XTA - Eco - blabla.lua
XTA - Interface - blablabla
XTA - Interface - blablabla
XTA - FX - blabla
XTA - FX - blabla



Just to make it a bit more simpler to find stuff when your in a hurry?

Is there any way to make some organising front end system thats better than just f11 view?

the f11 view is a widget itself and ie zero-K replaces it with their own version. But imo not worth it for xta, also who would do it.
So I think sorting out widgets and renaming like you proposed should already be very helpful.

Nice

Chili is really flexible in many ways. And the zk guys have solved many issues of springs default ui with their own. Maybe XTA can adopt the good stuff after all it is optional

Only problem with the current widget selector is that it's a bit ugly, and the scrollbar moves too slowly when scrolling mouse wheel. Maybe we could macify it with one of those search boxes, that let's you instafilter the whole list.

Call it iSelector.
