    Hello Commanders,

    This is a test build for modders maintaining mods that modify the build bar.

    Client Improvements
    • Added build bar size which can now be changed from 75% to 200% (separately from GUI size)
    • Changed settings:
      • Moved resolution scaling to top of graphics tab
      • Duplicated GUI size at top of graphics tab
      • Added build bar size to graphics tab and gameplay tab > user interface
    Client Fixes
    • Hopefully fixed standard build bar hot keys not always working
    Modding
    • build bar is now flexible in width and no longer restricted to 3 x 6
    • build bar entries are now specified as row / column with titans only / classic only flags
    "/pa/units/land/attack_vehicle/attack_vehicle.json": ["vehicle", 20, {row: 2, column: 6, titans: true}]
    "/pa/units/orbital/deep_space_radar/deep_space_radar.json": ["utility", 2, {row: 0, column: 2, classic: true}]


    To Do
    • add handling for conflicting unit server mods requesting same legacy index or new row / column
    • remove build bar entries for units not in current unit list
    • expand buildable projectile ammo info generated when not in unit list
    • add option to mount server mods for settings
    • add settings option to new game lobby
    Known Issues
    Notes
    • Legion Expansion will be updated to remove dependency on HodgePodge and enable Stryker
    • HotBuild2 will probably be updated to remove dependency on Blueprint Info Framework
    • old unit server mods that still shadow build.js will continue to override other unit server mods eg Boom Bot Wars @burntcustard
    113578-pte
    • Added id to each unit spec
    • Added projectile_specs with basic info and projectile: true for buildable projectiles in each unit spec
    • Added buildable projectiles to unit specs with merging of projectile ammo info if already in unit list (removing the need for ammoBuildHover hacks)
    • Added unit specs to settings

    Great inclusion for custom buildbars, been something i have wanted to see for a while. +1.
    Also a resizeable build bar? Id push for the ability to remove it completely, if players have everything hotkey'd and dont need it, its extra vision.
