getting a user selected plot?

[TC01]

I meant a different graphical effect, as opposed to the brightly glowing nuclear mushroom cloud. I agree that your method allows a different game impact such as maybe adding mutant cows, but that occurs after the graphical effect happens. I was hoping to skip/modify the graphical effect itself.

Well, Final Frontier, or Star Trek at least, has no graphical effect for the nuke after it is launched. No idea how this is done, though.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have looked through the interface modes. It is too bad that the canPick callback results in turning an invalid plot to "no color" instead of dark grey like all the other interface modes do; it would be nicer if the plot selection interface worked exactly the same in a python routine as it does in a vanilla routine such as paradrop.

I think I'll look into adding a range layer and a dark grey square (as opposed to no color).

Excellent! I tried to investigate the nuke explosion stuff to see how to select plots which are in fog or never explored, but I wasn't able to get anywhere yet. Figuring that out, and exposing it, would be nice too.
