Title: click less to transfert your cargo
Post by: jerikojerk on August 11, 2011, 12:25:45 am

When we are on a transfert menu, as long the possibility to transfert all the 'items' (ie all alien material) by just clicking on the item name, you may be interested in this little mod that allow to transfert 10 items with just one click.

It's not enough good quality to be one day in the trunk version but you may use the attached file to replace ufoai/base/ufos/ui/transfert.ufo (in fact rename you original version to revert the change). This file is loaded at game start so restart the game.

it will add a button that selects 10 items by 10 items for transfert.

Internaly it's done by calling 10 times the ±1 procedure. So you can't use that to cheat on cargo count.

there is still a little bug regarding having grey/blue button when reaching the max value. I still looking at a way to fix that...

hope it will help.

Wow... looks usable. :o Maybe make little markers at the top to represent numbers. Perhaps even a 'x100' button could be made up. Merci boucoup. You sir, can have all my omelette le fromage.

well that's not so difficult to do: if you try it you will find there are definitively bugs, but with my 0 knowledge it's the best i can suggest.
Having a customized button will requiere new strings to be translated and i think it's not worth it...

Thanks a lot for your patch, jerikojerk.  8)
It has been applied to master with just slight changes, so now all of the gamers can enjoy a better and faster transfer UI.
