Docs for this version can be found at https://phobos.readthedocs.io/en/v0.1.1/

Changes compared to build 3:

• New selection priority filtering mechanic similiar to the one from newer RTS games (harvesters won't select when you drag-select battle units with a box). Can be disabled by a user via RA2MD.ini.
• Sidebar tooltips can now go over sidebar bounds. Max. text width is customizable.
• Added RA2MD.ini "knob" for user to control whether the descriptions would be shown in sidebar tooltips.

Font is unchanged from the previous builds.

Build 3

This is a bugfix devbuild release.

• Fixed a bug when multiple tooltips displayed one over another on battlefield units/buildings.
• Fixed a bug when upgradeable buildings list was case-sensitive.
• Fixed a bug when UIDescription was overridden with an empty value if map rules had an entry for this TechnoType/SWType.

Font is unchanged from the previous build.

Build 2

Phobos and all it's previously published versions and sources are now licensed under LGPL v3! Most importantly that means that any derivatives must stay open-source in order to compy with the license.

• Extended sidebar tooltips
  • uimd.ini flags to control the new tooltips:
    • [ToolTips]->ExtendedToolTips=no (boolean) controls whether the extended tooltip or the vanilla tooltip would be drawn at sidebar. Extended tooltips don't use TXT_MONEY_FORMAT_1 and TXT_MONEY_FORMAT_2. Instead you can specify cost, power and time labels with the next tags
    • [ToolTips]->CostLabel= (CSF key) specifies the character or label to display to denote cost in an extended tooltip instead of default $ sign
    • [ToolTips]->PowerLabel= (CSF key) ditto for power generation/consumption instead of default ⚡ U+26A1 sign
    • [ToolTips]->TimeLabel= (CSF key) tritto for SW recharge time instead of default ⌚ U+231A sign
  • [TechnoType/SWType]->UIDescription= (CSF key) - description text which is shown in sidebar on hover over a unit or SW, won't show up if not specified
• Fixed a bug when switching build queue tabs via QWER didn't make tooltips disappear
• Win/lose themes ([Side]->IngameScore.WinTheme= (theme id) and [Side]->IngameScore.LoseTheme= (theme id))
• Switch hardcoded sidebar button coords to GDI sidebar ([Side]->Sidebar.GDIPositions= (boolean))
• Ability to hide healthbar with [TechnoType]->HealthBar.Hide= (boolean)
• Savegames are now filtered by Phobos version too, doesn't break Ares' version filtering (using build number or stable version number)

Included font is made by me and my mate from interwebz and among everything has the two new characters mentioned in the changelog.

Build 1

WARNING: SAVE GAMES FROM DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF PHOBOS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE!

Changes:

• PCX loading screens of any resolution that are centered (and cropped if bigger than the actual resolution); depends on Ares tag File.LoadScreen=
• Disable black dot spawn position markers on map preview ([LoadingScreen]->DisableEmptySpawnPosition= (boolean) in uimd.ini)
• Building upgrades placeable on ally or enemy buildings, controlled by PowersUp.Owner=Self,Ally,Enemy (mix and match the values separated with commas, for example you can make powerplant upgrade be applicable to allies and yourself by specifying PowersUp.Owner=Self,Ally in the INI). Defaults to Self
• Deployed.RememberTarget= (boolean) - makes vehicle-to-building deployer not lose the target on deploy. Defaults to no
• Fixed the bug when the mind control link was broken on vehicle-to-building deployment and it permanently changed owner
• Ability to hide the unstable warning by specifying the build number after -b= as a command line arg. (for example, -b=1 would hide the warning for build 1). Please, test the features (especially online and edge cases) before disabling it, we can't test everything :)
• Customizable laser disk radius via [WeaponType]->DiskLaser.Radius= (double) (in voxels). Defaults to 38.2, which is roughly the default radius used for vanilla saucer.

Remember, development builds are only briefly tested. Please, test new features if you want to help the development!
