UI SUGGESTION

[danadi712]

Can we have a colored universe map like in LITCUBE?It is very easy to see in one view what sectors belong to who.
Also , again like in LITCUBE , can we have the posibility to color ships?
Scout ship with one color, trade ships with another color and so on.
Thank you.

I dont think there will be any UI changes to the game. The devs spent lot of time developing this game which runs in a decades old game engine. Although, you maybe able to add a mod for that, for that you will have to seek answers in Script and modding section.

By the way, we can paint ships in our HQ for a certain extent.

It's possible to have the sector name in color. I tried this morning



Maybe I will make a mod once it's finished. It's not very difficult to do but it's long. The greek letter are not colored for the moment but I found a solution for that.

But I don't know if it's possible to color the name of ships.

Yes its possible to color the names of ships. The "Rename ships with Expression (RSwE)" mod in TC/AP allowed you to use custom colors for your own ship names.
Oh and i like the map colored depending on the faction. I would be interested in that mod

This is amazing, I 100% want this... though, will/does it make the game **modified**?

Edit: Ahhhh I saw you posted it already in the scripts forum here, in case any other idiots like me miss that
Doesn't cause modified either, nice!

JuyTak thanks for your mod.This is a must have and a huge improve in UI.
But i come back here and i post a list of things that i want to see in X3:FL
-EXPLORE UNIVERSE for scout ships (no need for repeating commands fly thru gate,map,map asteroids etc)
-UNIVERSAL BEST BUY/SELL LOCATOR or TRADE PRODUCT SEARCH like in LITCUBE
-PLAYER CONSOLE (like LITCUBE) who gives
1.ASTEROIDS a list of asteroids in universe (based on mapping).Very quick way to find where is nividium.
2.MARKET CAPACITY good when decide what type of complex you want to build.Shows how many products for same type can by buyed
3 .SATURN COMPLEX CALCULATOR is better in LITCUBE because you only specify the size of complex you want to bild and it autocalculate the number of stations needed.
Here loose lots of time trying to balance stations.
And also i like SATTELITE MONITORING from LITCUBE.Has a bigger interface.

Now i am happy to report that i installed Galaxy Explorer older mod for X3 AP and it seems that it works.

The Best Buy/Best Sell in FL already has a range and not just a single sector.
the maximum range can easily be changed in Globals to make it universal

HELLO Cycrow!
I use this post to thank you for your great idea with diplomacy in this mod.
It adds great replayability to the game.
Yes i see that we have radius in BEST BUY/SELL locator but radius is just 5.
I dont know where in GLOBALS to change in to UNIVERSAL BEST BUY!!
Are you reffering to X3 editor?
