Credit commas

Post by vodalian »

Hey guys. This may sound small, but I think it would save my eyes a lot of strain if you were to add commas when displaying credits, both your own, and for price lists.

Not sure but that should be just using the right python print function to provide the formating.

Enjoy the Choice :)

Could you tell me which python script so I can just change it myself?

Sorry don't know for sure i wrote my last real code more than 20 yrs ago so am hopelessly out of date with current practice :wink: but a check of the base interface and GUI.py might prove productive.

Enjoy the Choice :)

That code happens to be written in C++, but I will look into changing the credit formatting function there to use commas.

No they aren't.
I'm sorry if you were confused.

There is a relatively new system that was created by developers of Privateer Gold 1.2 that makes it feasable to have a UI in python.

But the Base computer system is much older than that.

I suppose it should be possible to rewrite the base computer using python, kind of like what privateer gold did.
