Anfit mod question (anfit read

OP 14/01/2012 · 07:30 PM #1

OK so I just got back and updated teh Anfit mod to the 5.0.22 or whichever the most recent one is (up int eh stickies).

Now I like it, it`s nice and smooth and all that jazz, butt he fleet builder option is horrible with way too much `useless` information. When I turn it off, the information is out data (example broadsword is stated to have 20 BR, but it`s 25 amongst other ships being out of wack due to recent/not so recent updates).

Now is there a way to have the old fleet builder screen to dynamically cache the ship info just like the one you can turn on? I only ask because I don`t really care about upkeep, weapons and hull of the stack I`m building, just the PR. Now to find the PR of the ships I`m building I have to scroll down. This is wholely impractical if your fighting alot of people in a very short space of time or are trying to rapidly get a defensive/ofensive fleet built and want the stacks to be just so.

This was possible easily in the previous `anfit basic` fleet builder as it had the PR of the stack your building in the line of the ship your building, making it SO easy to build balanced stacks or modifying what you want to build rapidly.

If there is no way to do a dynamic update for that screen, anyone know how I can manually update it to use current information like updated PR`s and build rates? You know..the important things.

I hate to sound ungrateful here Anfit, but I just feel you dropped the ball with one of the most important aspects of your mod by cluttering it with next to useless information and clunky functionality.

Regards

Aba

@Renegade
Ha!, I knew I`ve forgotten about something. I`ve coded the UI, but the backend was missing. I`ll make it 5.0.27 then :/

@Apollo
about the organising part, i`ll be doing it like this in the next releases: i want the list to be sorted on each page refresh first by order and then by ship name. also, i want to introduce a "tag" panel somewhere here, to use the order string tags as tags and show/hide just those with the matching tag

thank you for allowing me to re organise the ship list again, i put all my main ships @ the top closer to the build all button.

i think your mod is the only reason im updating to FF9 tomorrow (i still use 3.6)

Hey Anfit, just got the notification to update to .24 and have done so.. Thank you --- the changes to fleet builder look good.

The bottom "Build all" button doesn`t seem to work for me though... Like the permanent feature though,. thanks!

Ok, I might be coding this faster then I expected (I had some free time between 1:45am and 3am today). Before I post anything, can you update my ship list? I`ve posted current static to pastebin at http://pastebin.com/jDznN9VY
It`s editable, fire at will... Updated json will be incuded in the next mod release...

I agree with Aba for sure...

Anfit, firstly thank you the the changes are great. =) However, I`ve never used the presets and as such the new fleet page is a little toooo clunky for me as well..

2 other issues I`d like to bring up :

- On Fleet builder page: if I want to build 45 turns of a ship (say Lyth`s because I`m a terrible spammer o.0) so I enter 90 Lyths and wait for the turns to generate --- HOWEVER the "Submit" button doesn`t appear when the turns are finally there and I need to remove the 90 ships and re-add them to get the silly button to appear.
With the previous version you could put what ever you wanted and the "Submit" button was always there and you would get the popup "Hope you have enough turns" ---- can this be changed so that the button is always there and it tries to build what I say and not what it calculates as it is very frustrating?

- On the Manage fleet page you have the handy "-10% -50% and all" to quickly disband those percentages of your fleet which is SUPER convenient (although I only use the "all" option tbh)... Can you make -99% or in layman`s terms "everything in the fleet except 1 of each ship"???

This is great if you want to disband and spam or remove all except one of a ship to drastically alter your stack.. Allright....fine..... honestly its just for my Lyth spams =)

Cheers,
Sadi.

yep i cleared the cache and such but still didn`t update my modifications. I think it`s a user error not a script error on your addon. I`m useless at computer stuff though.

btw, are you aware that if you go into a ship`s build page (by Stephen) it grabs the data from that and stores them in your browser?

I did that Apollo, it just didn`t seem to want to update with the new info I put in, so I gave up in hope that Anfit would grace us with looking into it.

Thanks to you both.

aba if your willing to use the old mods you can manually change how it reads ships stats:

this was taken from a post by vehystrix (credit where credit is due)

go to your firefox profile folder (C:/users/[your username]/appdata/roaming/mozilla/firefox/[profile name(this is a random string most likely, appended with .default)])

In that folder go to extensions/{6f23c5d9-2b57-4b9c-8254-6f24a0043b0d}/content

Right there are all of the scripts that make up anfits mod.

The file you want is called "sssbuilder.ships.xml", open this with notepad, and edit the ship parameters as necessary.

Acknowledged. I`ve always been building from presets and custom devel-only unreleased mods and even that ages ago, when I was still playing actively. I`ll try to do something about it (actually if you look you might find a thread or to requesting advice and designs on a fleet builder, one of which was close to your desccription and I did not implement that for the lack of time). Anybody can add something to that?
