[REL] Multiple UIs for SH5 with TDC

[kylania]

Order Buttons are visible over the full screen Event Camera view and the Order Category bar is as well (I have mine view onMouseOver, so it shows when you mouse over the bottom like in this picture). You're also able to switch from Officer to Officer. Other UI elements are hidden while in this view and clicking doesn't activate the command but instead exits Event Camera.

Reaper, as for removing that objectives icon, check out this mod: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=164726

Yes, I had done in a similar way using the Editor to move them off screen and crop them so there dimension are 0 by 0 as done in that Mod.

I've since been trying to do it via scripting only as this would allow the user to select if they want them on or off or only allow completed objectives to show and such.
While my scripting knowledge is practically zilch I've been messing alot with the scripts trying to do things that way instead. I've slowly been getting things to work together, but the icon part has been driving me mad to figure out. Its as if the script doesn't actually control the icon but its hard coded - as no matter what I do they just re-appear .
I may just have to go back to the way I had it working. Crude but works

do me a favor:

when in that view again press:

shift + alt + 6 and let me know what the active camera is (I have debug code embedded in the files with the test copies )

[TheDarkWraith]

short and medium range icons have been added to radar:


as though I still cannot test anything dealing with radar I have to go by what I see in code as works. Until someone can show me how to enable my sub to have radar at anytime for testing purposes radar is considered untested.

Set MainEquipment and SecondaryEquipment to Late when you place the player sub and you will have the option of the VIIC/41 sub with radar.

that command (or command like it) does not exist in the game. If it did I would use it

Nothing seemed to happen?

press it again. It should pop up a little dialog box that tells you what the active camera is. You can do it any time, any station.

[TheDarkWraith]

added the send bearing and send range to TDC for sonar (though not sure they are working correctly )



and that is all for v1.2.0. I'm wrapping it up and putting it together now so that it's available for everyone. Look for it soon

oh, have to test out Radar first.........

gave myself a VIIC/41, Elite level, commander Human of course, Secondary and Main equipment to Late.....now where do I select the option of this sub with radar? I want to do a single mission that I made for testing radar.

i kind of had the same problem as the above poster with the outside camera view...I was inside the sub and my mouse was hovering over the XO so that is showed his name...Then when i went to F2 to outside camera and right click to move camera free, The name of the XO was attached to my coursor....

If i could figure out how to take screen shots i would lol...I figured the print screen worked but i cant find a .bmp or .jpg file anywhere...

are they stored somewhere other then in game folder or in my documents

EDIT: nevermind i found out how to take screen shots, ill take one and repost it...I see that you are wrapping it up so maybe this can just go into
next version bug fixes

I went to Historical Missions, next to the mission i made was a type-of-boat drop down. Even though I'd placed a VIIC, the option for a VIIC/41 was there. I choose that and had radar in game.
