Radar / Info Panel

NewtSoup · Post by **NewtSoup** » Sat, 8. Oct 16, 15:27

I know ( Shift R on my game ) Toggles the large panel in the cockpit between Radar and Information but even when toggled to radar it's constantly zonked by a stream of rep and bank balance updates. This makes tracking containers and fighters and such quite tiresome as I frequently have to slow and wait for the panel to come back to being a radar again.

Is there a mod that can either

a) Give me a second panel ( there's plenty of room in the lower left of the window ) to put ALL information and updates onto?

or

b) Make sure that the panel when toggled to Radar is JUST radar only and Hybrid when Not toggled?

A second monitor would be great but unfortunately UI modding is a nightmare and I doubt that there will be any mod like this in the near future.

What you could do is to XML-edit the notifications.xml which triggers the money & reputation messages.

Many thanks for this link. I'll try it as soon as possible!

Yes, thanks for that.

I've made a mental note to look into UI Modding for this exact thing. I know nothing about modding X-Rebirth at the moment and I'm distracted learning C++ right now but it's definitely something I want to look into.
