Tool tip for hull mods needed in fleet-buying screen
« on: November 16, 2018, 05:08:48 PM »

Loving the hell out of the new update,  but looking to buy some ships I noticed lots of the usual d-mods,  but no way to figure out exactly what they do other than buying the ship.  It would be super nice if we could mouse-over a d-mod before buying a ship and get the description of what exactly it does.

I hear you, but that's already a tooltip, so it's a bit of an "I heard you like tooltips" kind of situation, if you know what I mean.

That is to say, I'm not sure how to actually do this efficiently, UI-wise :)

Thinking about this a bit more, I the Codex - which you can get to from the fleet screen w/ the "question mark" icon - would be a good place for it. Made a note; it needs an overhaul at some point, and if it shows hullmods, that'd resolve this issue as well. It's a longer-term thing, though, not something I can do for .9.1a.

Yeah I tried to even just cross-reference them manually by looking them up in the codex, but the D-mods aren't listed there... yet.
