I'm trying to use Firaxis Live Tuner (FLT) to access and process game information and then highlight "interesting" plots. I'm stumped and need help.
I've created an FLT panel (code below) in which I define "InGame" and "_TunerResourcePanel" as "CompatitableStates" and identify "_TunerResourcePanel" as a "LoadState". (code below)
The code almost works. When opened in FLT, the code creates a panel with two items in, what I call, the "CompatibleStates" selection box (the box next to the "New Control" selection box at the top of the FLT tab created for the panel). When I select "_TunerResourcePanel" the panel is initialized and works as expected - except the "Highlight Resource Plots" action creates an error (i.e., turns red). Apparently "UI.HighlightPlots" is not accessible to the panel in the _TunerResourcePanel "context". When I select "InGame" in the "CompatibleStates" selection box, the panel is not initialized and, as a result, does not access and process game information as desired. However, the Highlight Resource Plots action can highlight "interesting" plots. Apparently it has access to "UI.HighlightPlots". Indeed, the hard-coded plot indexes are highlighted on the game map when the action is taken in InGame "context". So, it appears that the FLT code can access and process game information and highlight "interesting" plots. However it can't do both in the same "context".
How can I make UI.HighlightPlots and my lua "LoadState" code accessible at the same time in the FLT panel?
