Now that you have had some time with 1.5, what do you think of the Info Panel?
What kinds of things would you like to see displayed?
I would like: range of fire, range of movement, range of sight, cooldown turn amount, bombard range.
I don't know if this can be pulled from the csv and automatically displayed or if it would have to be manually researched and typed into the description text.

Junk,
Look in the DATA/UI folder ... there should be a new BSF called UIinfotools or something like that. I looked at it the other day, seems straight forward ... You might be able to add some more stuff on your own ... looks like the stuff is in alpha numeric order, meaning just cut/paste and increment the script.
There's also a new TXT file with the same name.

The text file tells the info where to appear on the panel etc.
The bsf gathers the info.
Text1 has the text that I thought would be for the tool tip.
For the bsf I c&p info3 and named it 4, used the armour icon, told it to get BombardReload for the Calliope
For the info text I c&p, name it 4, place at x 76 y 310
For text1 I c&p AR, rename BR Bombard Reload Turns
I get the number 0 in the correct spot on the panel without the armour icon and no tool tip.
More investigation is needed. Maybe Pip will feel sorry for us and tell us where to look.

I found out why it shows 0 for reload, you have to bombard first, then it changes to 3.
I found the symbols in the UI.bsf and added one for BR. It doesn't show in the force screen or the UI tray or the unit info panel. I used the HE icon.
I can't get the tool tip to show either.
Oh well, next week.
