Hi Mojko, thanks for this, is it possible to make the type search field linked to the category so that if category = air only air related types appear please?

You mean that you want the filter values to represent only items that are currently in the list? For example: you start with all the filter options but as you select an option and narrow down the search results, the filter options also narrow down. Specific example: if you select "land" units only you won't get the option of AA batteries in trait filter as this is naval units only.

Should this be applied to every filter? Is this what you have in mind?

Yep, absolutely that. Makes filtering much more intuitive I think.

@galum I tried out your suggestion, but I'm not really sure if it's an improvement. When you're using filters you are also losing some of the filter options so if you actually want to go back and switch to a different filter option, it might no longer be there. In such case you need to disable the filter and then select your desired option. I'm not convinced that this is an improvement for the ui. It's also not very intuitive because new people coming to the app would probably don't understand quickly how to use the filtering. I think current ui is more intuitive.

From technical point of view this feature is quite difficult to implement but more importantly, it would have impact either on memory usage or render speed as each time you select a filter value potentially all filter components need to be re-rendered. Also, new set of filter options would need to be extracted each time you select a filter option.

Overall, I decided that keeping current UI / filtering is the better option. Feel free to add more suggestions, I will read and analyse each and every one

No problem
Thanks for trying!

Thanks for the neat tool, Mojko. It's invaluable. I have a question: Is it intended that I cannot type spaces in the unit name field? Specifically on the end? I can add a space by moving the insertion point and editing what I've already typed, but they are blocked when I am typing normally. Thanks.

- mod support added
- mod loader field in now available in the bottom of the screen
- input url of mod data files and push the "load mod" button

- mod folder and all of its files have to be publicly available (no login, no captcha, no validation)
- file names have to match game data files convention
- mod files will be applied on top of the default files
- modding support is only for game data files, not for images and localization files
- loaded mod state is not persistent between requests (you have to load your mod each time you open the Unit navigator)
- loaded mode state is not cached, so loading time may be slow (depends on the hosting service providing mod files)

See the diff page for more details.
