General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 02:20Yep.
The only bug I noticed was when the screen is resized; that's a known bug and on the list. Otherwise, should be OK.

Re: General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 02:55I also added a new feature to the bazaar: you can now sell life back to the alchemist - as much as you want.
However, you can only buy 15 life.
Also, per the previous implementation, the selling/buying price of each goes up by 250 every five levels, up to 15. Should be an interesting twist to strategy - a good way to mortgage some credits to get an important card, or something.
I also upgraded the bazaar items to now have a buying and selling price. Depending on popular opinion, we could sell pets back to the pet shop for a lower price (or something). Anyway, the machinery is in place, should we choose to use it.

Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 02:58By the way, not sure if it was intentional, but before, you could buy unlimited life from the Bazaar. In the code, it was supposed to be limited to 15, so I fixed this bug, if it was a bug.

Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 03:17I will check out the new bazaar tomorrow as it is getting late for me. 
I was going to push the thumbs up button but it looks like we no longer get the email to let us know that we have been thanked.
Oh, have you had a chance to look at the changes submitted by Roujin Patch: New preferences for quest mode Adding this in with lower upper limits and adding these to the quest preferences view might be nice.
The hard coded limits that you mentioned in the past. Are these limits only used while adjusting the settings while in-game? Are people allowed to edit the file in a text editor to get above these hard coded limits?

Yeah, could do. @Roujin - Seems like you've volunteered a few patches, maybe request commit status and work them in as you see fit?Oh, have you had a chance to look at the changes submitted by Roujin Patch: New preferences for quest mode Adding this in with lower upper limits and adding these to the quest preferences view might be nice.
Exactly right.The hard coded limits that you mentioned in the past. Are these limits only used while adjusting the settings while in-game? Are people allowed to edit the file in a text editor to get above these hard coded limits?

Re: General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 04:12Not the exact same file, but if you look at the new one (same place, same name) it's the same information. The new one can be edited too, in a text editor, and the new values will work in-game.
Re: General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 04:20It's possible to enter values above the hardcoded limits and have them work?

Yes, it should be possible to adjust the values with a text editor. I think that the format of the pref file has changed but it should not be too hard to figure out.
- quest preferences | Open

The maximum settings that have been mentioned should only limit us to the range of numbers that we can enter while using the in-game quest mode presences tab.

It's 21 century and year 2012 - why homebrew config file formats and not xml or json?

I'll have to decline on that offer for now - maybe at a later point. See my post in the other thread.

Re: General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 15:19I am getting weird transitions when changing between tabs in the latest daily build. For example when switching from Preferences to Quests. It doesn't look like I'm switching to a new tab, but like the contents of the tab are "morphed" to become the contents of the new tab.
The same in the new bazaar, when I switch from, say, Bookstore (which has 1 item) to Banker (which has 2 items). First, a second item (lucky coin) seems to appear, then the first item is changed (to estates). The subtitle seems to change a tiny bit before the title does, too.

Re: General UI support
Posted: 05 Feb 2012, 18:48I am trying out the new bazaar and it looks nice.
Is there currently a way to leave this bazaar and to go back to the home screen without quitting and then restarting?
Ah, I clicked on my Mac's close button, the red circle at the top left and it went back to the home screen quest mode screen.
I also noticed that the resizing is not consistent. I noticed that after several resizes that I get wider buttons on the left when at 800 x 600 pixels. And I am getting narrower buttons on the left when the screen is at maximum size. A work in progress.
