UFO-Scripts/Datatypes/V SHAPE SMALL

V_SHAPE_SMALL

V_SHAPE_SMALL is the shape in equipment menu, that is how much space do we need to place this weapon (this value defines a rectangle given by the upper left corner (x, y) and dimensions (w, h))

shape "x y w h"

Several entries of a V_SHAPE_SMALL datatype can be grouped together to create more complex masks.

shape "x y w h"
shape "x y w h"
...

To position the various shapes (width x height) you need to use the first two values (x and y position).

Currently the maximum size of a container is 8 width x 4 height, please keep that in mind when assembling shapes. This means that (x+w < 8) and (y+h < 4).

Examples

shape "0 0 2 1"	2 wide and 1 high	11
shape "0 0 1 2"	1 wide and 2 high	1 1
shape "0 0 5 2"	5 wide and 2 high	11111 11111
shape "0 0 5 1" shape "0 1 3 1"	5 wide and 1 high (starting at first row (0) first place (0)) 3 wide and 1 high (starting at second row (1) first place (0))	11111 111..
