Sorting stuff alphabetically is not really what I would call genius. Its more... tedious? Lots of "read, cut, scroll, paste, scroll back, rinse, repeat".

I've been waiting for this. Please do it!

Yes, that includes the stone stocks screen, which will get category titles just like the workshop menu has. I will also delete most of these weird entries, if I can. I already have 28 entries removed.

  That is absolutely fantastic!

[Gamerlord]

Hell yeah Meph!

[Meph]

Right on, I'll continue with that then. Its also cross-race, so all playable races get the benefits.

Hey Meph, what text editor do you use for this? You should try an editor with split view (like Sublime Text) if you don't already -- you can keep the same file open on the left and right sides of a screen, scrolled to different positions. It's a lifesaver when refactoring code -- probably for raws, too.

[Meph]

Notepad++, but I use BeyondCompare for split screens. It can even compare pngs or .dll or hex entries in a compiled exe.

As a suggestion, can the item tilesets receive a neutral background? The checkerboard does not really match the stockpile and it's a bit hard to read on 16x16.

By the way, rendermax does not work anymore. This is not surprising that text will be text crashes it.

[Meph]

Rendermax doesnt work even outside of TwbT ?

The items do have exactly the checkerboard that is used by stockpiles in the default tileset/phoebus. Just the color differs, because they take on the color of the item.

I tried a neutral black background first, but people said: No, we want something else.

I did not try outside of TwbT, it's too awesome to read punctuation again.

If the people said no, then it's no.  The checker board seems twice as large as an empty slot but maybe it is because of the size difference. Nope I was not looking close enough.

I tried floor tiles first, was hard to identify. Then I used solid black, which was very clear, but people said "no, we want some background". So I tried the stockpile background, because the items will most likely be displayed inside of stockpiles anyway...

If you play with a 24x tileset it should be much, much clearer. I plan to make one at some point.

[Boltgun]

A 24 tileset would be nice, it will probably take ma a year to make 24x succubi sprites considering how meh I am at graphics. 

Stonesense sprites might be easier for me to do as I will piece them together from other sprites. (human + horns + hooves, there you go, next!)

[Meph]

I thought about taking a 16x16 tileset and cleverly upscaling it

Dev Log - Day 7

Today I updated Roses scripts to 1.1 and fixed all the syntax in the raws for that.

I sorted the stockpiles, removed more inorganics, all of which falls under the category of Raw Cleanup. I added some balancing changes and fixes and made another mod update. I dont want to post the changelog twice, so just have a look at the update thread: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=139625.msg5402333#msg5402333

I like the checker background shifting color. Helpful on the small items like ammo to see the difference between the bone ammo vs metals.
