In-Development StatusDisplay - status.json / journal display and surface navigation assistant.

Hi,

The ship's fuel capacity is published in the session journal file in the "LoadGame" event at the start of each session, e.g.

"FuelCapacity":16.000000

as well as in the "Loadout" event when changing ship, e.g.

"FuelCapacity":{ "Main":32.000000, "Reserve":0.630000 }

I was wondering, why the limit to the amount of rows in the elements? Would it not be possible to do a 12x12 grid?

I would really like to fill up my 1080 by 1920 monitor without stretching the elements.

 

[Robert Maynard]

Multiple grids (there can be up to 8) can be placed next to each other to provide a total grid size exceeding 12 x 12 elements (but panels won't merge across grids).

Doh, I am dumb. Never thought of that. Thanks!
