[UI] AgS - Resource Info Panel

[ArgentumStudios]

I did have a bug that I found (and it might be with my resolution 1680x1050). The or faces in the top no longer have the tooltip when you put your mouse on them telling you the breakdown. It shows the tooltip info for either the item to the left of it or the item to the right of it (I can't remember what they are right now). Is there an easy way to fix this?

Strange, are you using any other mods? My mod doesn't touch TopPanel.xml or TopPanel.lua which controls those tooltips, and I just tested it without any issue. Could you possibly send me a screenshot?

Here is a quick screenshot of the toop tip working just fine in my test:

It doesn't show the cursor, but it was positioned directly over the

Thanks for the reply. I just updated to the latest version and it is back to normal now. I don't know what was going on? I use two other mods (unofficial patch and improved plot information) so maybe there was something conflicting between them? Anyways, thanks for the great mod!

 

[ArgentumStudios]

I'm glad it's working for now. Maybe I'll try doing some tests with the other two mods to see if there is some kind of weird interaction.

Thanks for the link on the economy mod page, argentum.
i had an ambitious idea to convert magus's luxury resource display to include ALL resources (luxury, bonus & stragetic) but i dont see much of a reason to waste my time now. any headway on the hotkey action?

 

[ArgentumStudios]

You're welcome. I will try adding hotkey support in this next release, but I haven't had time to really dig into it yet.

Took me quite a while to understand why I couldn't get this addon to work. I downloaded it and installed it and enabled it. But I couldn't make it show up in the drop down menu. I wasn't aware that to enable the use of mods ingame, you have to start the game from the main menu, "Mods" and then single player. Mods doesn't work if you start normal singleplayer mode. Just in case anyone else needs to know. This mod is great, can't understand why it isn't included in the game.

 

[ArgentumStudios]

I'm glad you were able to get it working. I can kind of understand why they made the mods work the way they did, but I'd rather have them be enabled/disabled persistently between new games.

Ah, I finally found the best resource display UI mod. Thanks for your work.

 

[ArgentumStudios]

You're welcome. I'm still working on the next round of changes, work has been a little demanding lately, but I'm hoping it'll be ready for release soon.

Superb add-on & pretty useful... but since there's always room for enhancements i'd like to recommend_suggest_ask_for two things;

1) Luxury-Bonus-Strategic + Foreign + Unclaimed and the reason for having these extra two categories below....

2) Double-clicking any items would find locations of such tiles (either through cycling or pointing) just like what the default Units panel does with everything on a map. Nothing i hate more than having to scroll around (ever sooo patiently) to simply find the lonely Uranium tiles just activated by Atomic-Theory & what else.

Please?!
And, many thanks.

 

[ArgentumStudios]

I'm glad you find it useful! I'm still working on the 3rd release, but work has been overwhelming lately. Hopefully the holidays will give me some free time to finish it up. I'll also take a look at adding some functionality along the lines of what you suggested. I'm sure some kind of highlighting/cycling can be done.

 

[smellymummy]

something in the UI zoom to tile can do it. forgot the exact name but its available

I wonder, has anyone gotten this to work with the latest patch?

I have it installed, but I don't see any additional info panels, in new or saved games. I have several other mods installed, but all of them are disabled.

 

[Ulti_mecia]

This has been mentioned before but I'd just like to confirm that hotkey support would be ideal.
I installed this mod a while ago because it is extremely useful, but later de-installed in favour of the luxuries resources display in the top bar because it was accessible much faster (I prefer to keep the left info bar dedicated to the Science progress bar.)

Getting a hotkey in would perfect your mod, kudos on the work so far.

 

[ArgentumStudios]

Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm definitely listening, just caught up with life and work at the moment. I'll take a look at any issues with the latest patch this weekend and also see if I can at least squeeze in some hot keys and minor tweaks. I'm also working on designing a tool to help the mod community in general, so my attention has been somewhat divided.

Asking permission to use your mods in a new CCMAT build.

Any news on the v3 release?

 

[Decimatus]

Does this mod also show custom resource icons, or could it be made to(and if so, how difficult)?

 

[Sneaks]

Dec, this mod will show any resources that exist in the Resources.xml file. Your problem with the top panel will also exist with this.
The problem is that the Top Panel and AgS Panel both use the Font Icons (i.e. [ICON_COAL] [ICON_IRON] etc) which no one has successfully managed to add to just yet.

Would it be possible to use other font icons instead of the resource icon? For instance using the Hammer Icon for Copper, so that I can differentiate the resources in the UI until the overall issue is fixed.
