MOD: bright rows for German and Soviet commandersreport

Post by overkill01 »

I sometimes find it difficult to read the commanders report.
So I made a quick little mod that will make lines (row) between units in the commandersreport more visible.
It will also make lines in other screens more visible, for example OOB screen.
For both German and Soviet.

I have made a 2nd version with black lines for German, maybe some people might find it easier on the eyes.
For soviet it stays the same as the other version, brighter red.

This surely makes it easier to follow the lines. before it was easy for the eyes to jump lines, when ex. wanting to know the supply priority for xxx Army.
Thanks for this little life improvement feature. Guess they might need the same on the other side of the front.

Thanks for the mod, I really had a lot of trouble reading along the lines at some times.

After using it a bit more I found that it was a bit hard on the eyes so I have adjusted the bright lines a bit, making them less bright.
I also made a version with black lines, although I prefer the silver lines.

Very useful function [:)]
But what about having a mouse over effect on the lines, making the lines stand out when the curser is on a line. That would make it easier to explore the figures for each unit without loosing eye focus on the unit line.
Maybe better if the line stay highlighted by a click on the name as it will make it possible to use the curser to click on the tabs, without deselecting the line.

This should be something in the baseline of the game, truly!

I don't think so, it would be great though.

This might well be the best mod for WITE2 anyone has made so far. Well done (and an indication that it, or something like it, should really be in the base game)!
