file based menu

[Ezio]

i made a simple patch so backform, text and button placement can be edited (haven't check in-game HUD thought). i was planning to add more variable to clean up some position hacks later. you can test in case there are bugs and tell me what could be improved

put menu.ini inside /user documents/Warzone 2100 Master, beside config file

I'm confused. What kind of useful things can you do with this? All the interesting things are still hard-coded, as far as I can tell.

un-hard-code all of them is kind of annoying since i need to make a name or each variable to be exported, so i do it little by little.

Sorry, I just do not see this as moving in the right direction, but rather making it harder to un-hard-code it properly later.

This is a nice idea. It makes a lot of sense. Good work Ezio. I may implement this in Legacy. Of course, it will be more difficult, since Legacy has switched to a 2.3 codebase.

i was thinking for using script to make those gui, this incomplete export is used for readability so i could tell which defines draw what. so i just need to do something like backform(x,y,w,h) or so.
