Re: Walls have 1/3 health of laser turrets
They should add it to the F4 menu, something like show_all_resistances - if they added it for a mod, it should be really easy to add that way, right?

The problem is they added this to all entities independently so you can't just "turn it on" globally and have to do it on all entities.Jap2.0 wrote:They should add it to the F4 menu, something like show_all_resistances - if they added it for a mod, it should be really easy to add that way, right?
That is why you can't add it on F4 menu.
Mods however might have some sets of items to turn it on where it is useful to prevent screen cluttering on entities where is has no sense.
So the goal of players is to determine which entities would benefit from turning it on and which don't. But first the mod should be released so people would try to research and vote.
Re: Walls have 1/3 health of laser turrets
I get that not everything should have them shown, but shouldn't it be fairly simple to, when the option is turned on, have a loop check all entities to see if they have resistances, and if so, show them? If they don't want mod support, they could even use a predetermined list from vanilla.

Re: Walls have 1/3 health of laser turrets
Correct. PacifyerGrey doesn't know what he is talking about or worded his post extremely poorly. If it's possible to do it at run time (and this support if missing could be implemented when doing the debug switch), with the mod API or not, then of course a toggle switch in debug menu can do it.Jap2.0 wrote:I get that not everything should have them shown, but shouldn't it be fairly simple to, when the option is turned on, have a loop check all entities to see if they have resistances, and if so, show them?
