at least its not visible with the command cvarlist

Code: [Select]

$ diff ufo1 ufo2
...
193c102
<         snd_music            "van_geoscape"
---
>         snd_music            "karlmacklin_geoscape"
287,289d195

Only difference I see in cvarlist of the two situations (overlay on, overlay off) is music. And I bet thats a lucky accident.

I have some new icons and a totally new layout - I'll post them if I manage to fix the overlay issue. Maybe its doable with "buttons"?

Is there a way to know if a map_overlay is active in a .ufo script?  Cvars do not seem to contain any info on the subject.

Made some icons in spirit of the new UI and some tweaks on icon positioning/hover.

I'm still pretty new to the .ufo's but they seem to be pretty easy to use. Are the constants like LAYOUTALIGN_RIGHT documented somewhere (no matches on wikisearch)?

Thanks for the link.

I think I saw that while skimming trough the wiki. "The new UI" is somewhat too trekkie for my taste. But I could make SVG:s for identical icons and similar color scheme - even if I stay with my 45 degree corners instead of round ones.

Are the UI component locations defined in code, or in property files?

The new (apparently unbalanced) reaction system feels much better than the old - even if it is still pretty deadly. I like the new grenade throwing reactionary aliens.
