Re: modifications to the game, displaying images on the screen via lua scripts

Displaying an image on screen is technically feasible - see the PiImage helper in data/pigui/libs/image.lua. The hard part is "drawing the rest of the owl", integrating that capability into a mod which adds new UI to display the image in, listens to game events and triggers the correct ima...

Re: Updating the wiki mission scripting tutorial

Btw, wiki code examples and such will sooner or later become obsolete. Why, what? You mean the move to markdown? The modder/developer-facing side of the wiki is *also* planned to be obsoleted / removed entirely and migrated to Markdown, but it's been a matter of "not enough hours in the day&qu...

Re: Map : reset after hyperspace and additional keyboard bindings

I'm also thinking about adding more keyboard binds to the Sector Map - moving the selection around between systems on a route, as well as being able to use the keyboard to set the jump destination or calculate a route. One challenge for setting the destination with the keyboard are multi-star syste...

Re: Music Contribution

diduuz: I'd consider focus_calm, insignificance_v2, and space_warfare_v2 as the front-runners for tracks to finish. I'd consider each of them to need about the same amount of improvement to fully match the style and mixing quality I'd like to see from the game's music. I'll refer you to this previou...

Re: Feature Dream: PiEditor

Five years gone, and we're part of the way there. We now have an out-of-process editor framework for implementing static content editors (e.g. model viewer, system editor, etc.), and two "editor contexts" implementing... well, the model editor and the system editor. We also have limited ho...

Re: Music Contribution

This is a *really* nice track @diduuz! I think you've absolutely nailed the ambient feel of Pioneer with it, and I love the way the cello ties everything together and gives it a very slight melancholy feel to complement the "lonely space adventure" part of Pioneer. My only concern is the f...

Re: Music Contribution

@wkfo That's a very nice first attempt! I'd suggest the first second or so where you have the "hum" fading in without any other instruments feels a bit long, the section from 0:02 to 0:04 feels like it drags on a little bit long playing the same note pattern for its role as a "triumph...

Re: Music Contribution

Since we're using this as a "catchall" thread: I have a *request* for music this time instead of feedback! I'm looking at implementing something akin to the "landed on planet" notification from No Man's Sky (e.g. https://youtu.be/UExKIrOlVmU?t=167) for when players land at statio...

Re: Feature Request: Highlighted item in System Overview > Trade info for easier shopping

I believe the aim is more to select a commodity of interest and allow the eye to visually find it easily in the list of commodities displayed for a system/station.

Re: Music Contribution

diduuz: apologies for not responding for so long, real life has taken priority for the last month and I haven't had time to check the forums. I'm evaluating these songs on laptop speakers right now and will follow up with actual headphones soon. I'm definitely a fan of space_warfare_v2! The deep ins...
