Description:

MOD-ID TAG = #698635602
DESCRIPTION = LoadOut Flags
SUMMARY = Each soldiers’ Nationality Flags are displayed during the Squad LoadOut phase.

You can also precisely configure their size and where they show up into the Unit Panels.

INSTALLATION NOTES

1) This version has been calibrated for my own "Button’ized" (200+) Flags from the qUIck_FLG mod package. If you prefer the Vanilla (or from other mods) purely rectangular images of 128×64;

— The FLAGS_XLoc (=202) default value from the XComqUIck_FLO.INI file (in the Config folder) will need to be lowered @ about (=184).
— Ideally the default FLAGS_SCALE (=0.70) sizing of 70% should be okay for them. Up to you if you want smaller or even bigger scales! 😉

2) If you play with TrackTwo’s Upgrade Reminders.. you’ll most probably have to move his tiny Icons somewhere else as well. Otherwise, they’d simply overlay the Flags!

— Both his Config settings WEAPON_Y_POSITION=218 & PCS_Y_POSITION=218 need to be set @96 for them to be re-located straight into the Primary Weapons area.. for example.

3) Of course.. you can move stuff around that panel and resize as you see fit. The framework Grid is rather simple and you should have no troubles figuring out what else & how anything should be altered.

CURRENT ISSUES

FIX!) The previously mentionned "Panels refresh states" flaw has been resolved in a quick chat with InfectedM… as predicted, an extra function loop was necessary.

The Avenger-Defense LoadOut mode isn’t compatible with this indirect process. Even if it is a minor issue.. sadly, there’s nothing i can do about it. I suspect the final missions duo (Tower + Fortress) will react in a similar way.

FUTURE PLANS

The Tactical Layer could receive similar elements too. I’m presently examining the Info ToolTips script to insert Flags & Country names at the bottom of the Stats list along with a supplemental "MOBILITY" value line. May take awhile though.

Any comments, requests, kudos.. please post below & don’t forget to add your Ratings vote if you like this new HUD enhancement.

Enjoy.
