Changes or additions to blueprints and cost_to_build

Post by Kabury »

Right now, blueprints have the following behaviour (I think):
- If there are item proxy requests, if they are a module slot or a fuel slot:
- Draw the item proxy request id above the entity, and consider the item proxy request in the count given by LuaItemCommon.cost_to_build[/url]

I would like to request for all item proxy requests to be drawn and added to LuaItemCommon.cost_to_build

If this is not desirable, I propose to split .cost_to_build into .cost_to_build_partial and .cost_to_build_total, with partial being the current .cost_to_build and total being the proposed change which includes all item proxy requests.


The user could even press shift (currently unused I believe) in the setup new blueprint GUI and when holding a blueprint in the cursor to switch to .cost_to_build_total which would draw these other requests.

Or we can keep .cost_to_build name, and include or exclude these item requests with another filter box "generic item request"

Blueprint string:

Code: Select all

Or we could have no graphic changes at all and only the split of .cost_to_build_partial and .cost_to_build_total, or the filter box and just don't draw the generics but add them to .cost_to_build.
