Too bad... Then *you*could make something in a patch, maybe ? [;)]
Sure I can, but then all units skins you guys are making would have to be edited to work properly. I suggest to make list (in a single thread so it will be easy to find) of things/changes that modders would be happy to see, then I will check what is possible to do achieve in short time and if time (and doomtrader and Anraz ;] ) will let me, I will try to implement them at single patch. :)

Thinking at another solution, if the 2 figures where a bit more distant it'll be better too : like "2.3- 4" instead of "2.3-4" . Possible ?
Yes, possible. However values will be separately and rounded, so there will be no "-". Just two numbers that can have different font/color/position.

Slightly off topic, but this question has been bugging me: Why do you use decimal places in the strength values? Why not just scale the strength values to eliminate values less than one?

Many thanks Bleck !
Rounded values would do the trick for me, seeing "4 1" is pretty intuitive since I started playing boardgames in '77 [:D] . How could one mod this ?

First request for modding is to get some documentation [;)] !

As I wrote - it will be rounded to full for displaying.

Must wait for patch.

Yep, I understand, unfortunately patching ToW and working on Bitter Glory are higher in priority list ;) I hope you guys understand.

Sure Bleck !
Well, we all know programmers just don't like to write documentation (waste o'time) [:D] !

Nice work Agent S, we are going to have old school counters before we know it.

The modded counters are really nice, AgentS could you share this ? I've tried to look at counter-modding lol, but it's a tad complicated for me !

shall do.
...really nice counters; good job.
-Getting rid of the burnished look was high on my list.
-As soon as I'm on a bigger screen, I'll post a screenie.
I like your naval counters.

Thanks for letting me see the result, Agent. I also noticed that you have managed to move the strength and action points onto the counter itself on your own counters. I must try this as soon as the patch is out and there's to be a rounding down of the numbers.

Modd on! [8D]
