v0.0.0.61 - HUD & Power update
Big GUI update - now have Power, Storage and Life Support info at the top of the screen. Mouse over gives more detail.
With the power GUI we are now showing a bar chart which shows power generated, usage and also deficit if not generating enough. With the main number being the surplus of deficit. Hopefully this doesn't overwhelm, may need to refine, or split in to more than one bar. Batteries now have a charge rate, rather than previously where all unused power was stored. Battery charge is also shown in the power graph. We also now also have flashing battery icon on items which do not have enough power.
Life support GUI now gives a clear indication of the oxygen level inside the station, and how much oxygen is being generated or lost.
Obviously a few balances:
- Refinery now switches off if no ore to process
- Solar panels take less damage (as we are away from asteroid field we shouldnt be taking too much damage). Will hopefully add distance/damage in at some point.
And some fixes:
- Haulers could get assigned, but didnt clear out assigment if distance was too far.
- Droids could try charging if no power available!
- Droids could get stuck on certain moves if game paused.
- Life support could only pump the amount it generated, so couldnt use any stored oxygen, ooops!
Next up - Time controls and further damage/maintenance additions.
Cheers
Nic
