[IMPLEMENTED][TEXT] Recipes' visual form

~Bob~ · 12-12-2009, 02:09 PM

I think that current form is very ugly and has no design or style, just consecutive strings of text. So I want to suggest new text style:

Differences:

- no recipe cost in recipe name — shops are always active since you can buy items to your circle, so players always can see icon of gold with cost and recipe cost in recipe name is useless
+ indentation for "Gives" and "Requires" substrings
+ players can see recipe and its components costs in recipe form
+ total cost

What do you think, guys?

Why not?

Would be even better to have a Shop Name near item that is required.

Graupel · 12-12-2009, 02:48 PM

I like it.

T-Up

ZΣD · 12-12-2009, 03:15 PM

You can't use different font sizes in wc3 text, so item names + shop names will take 2 strings and this will be ugly.

I see, that's bad.

Nice, this is an obvious T-up!

Wow I love it ~BoB~! I'm indifferent for Total Cost of item but the simple menu spacing is delicious. You've got my support.

T-Up.

wouldn't this actually cost MSI...i read somewhere that even 1 line of text or even space causes MSI...
T-D if im right
T-up if im wrong cos it looks neat

dominator02 · 12-13-2009, 01:12 AM

,this is now at my supportive suggestion.

Cp6uja_ · 12-13-2009, 01:44 AM

Total cost is already suggested by Cigaro. About the spaces, I don't know is it that required.

About the mapsize, yes, it does increase, but it is really really small ammount.

L|Enzo · 12-13-2009, 03:33 AM

I find nothing wrong with the current, however, this is an improvement, so T-up

Yurnero · 12-13-2009, 03:43 AM

This is good, but more importantly, item descriptions need to be cleaned up to be less "giant wall of text". Take a look at Bfly's item description as well as most other items. By description I mean when it's in your inventory.

dotapaz · 12-13-2009, 05:33 AM

Outspacing looks neat. Total recipe is nice. Total price too. I remember when i started playing like 6 months ago and it was horrible at the beginning. I had no problems understanding the heroes the basics of gameplay etc. but the items are just a pain. This would have so cleared thing up for me as a noob at that time...

I think if one wnats to enhance the game attraction for beginners this is a good step...

NightFelix · 12-13-2009, 06:30 AM

Totally T-UP!

Necro · 12-13-2009, 06:49 AM

T-up!

Ro W · 12-13-2009, 09:33 AM

t-up my lady!

Ez_Mystery · 12-13-2009, 12:37 PM

BlankShot · 12-13-2009, 02:21 PM

T-up. If only Blizzard could add HoN's 'Buy all parts' function =/
