Redesign of mods tab

Recommended Posts

Here is my QoL idea to make an "Installed Mods" category more useful, than it's now. I'm attached some picture examples of all of my ideas. Red numbers are need to relate information in the text to a specific part of the picture. 

1. Load mods logos for the left side instead of placeholder. To indicate state of mod (loaded / not loaded), green or red highlight can be used on mod's name. This is will be more useful utilization of ui space for each mod, and will help with searching of exact mod. For now, it's can be hard to find exact mod in all this bunch without pictures. 

2. Pin favorite mods, so they're at the top of the list. On my example, "pin" is shown as yellow star. This is gonna be useful to get faster way to loved mods.

3. Detailed information box about mod. Modders are point out many information about mods, what is using only for Steam Workshop dropping. I suggesting to add a specified mod info box for every modification. This menu can be called by a new button on the right side of mod button. In this new box, useful information can be found here from mod.txt file, as Logo of the modName, Version, Size and Steam Tags. All this information can be useful to get fast point of the mod's content without going into Steam Workshop. All this info is just idle in the mod.txt, and I think it will be useful to use these details in-game. 

4. Link to the Steam Workshop. If you want more information, you can go to Steam Workshop using this button. 

5. Direct link to the mod files. Finding a path to the mod's files, loaded from Steam Workshop is awkward. In many games is provided button to get directly to the mod's path, and I think it's can be useful in AoH3 too. 

In my opinion, these changes will favor modding community in AoH3. For now, it's looking as unfinished job. Thanks for reading! If you like it, please be kind enough to leave a reaction to the post 🥰

    • Campaign: Small Scenarios
      In this topic, share your ideas for Campaign scenarios.

      These scenarios focus on a small part of the map, with the rest designated as wasteland.

       

      For example, a scenario of the Reconquista in 1054, where gameplay takes place only on the Iberian Peninsula.

      What are your ideas for small historical scenarios?

       


       
    • Events - Common events for every civilization in the game
      Hi,
      in this topic, I am interested in your ideas for events that can happen for every Civilization in the game.
      I'm also interested in Missions for every Civilization.

      Here is some example, have more than 10k army, have more than 5000 gold, build 10 buildings, recruit an Advisor, increase tax efficiency 20 times, be largest  producer of some resource in the world, unlock 5 Civilization legacies etc.

    • Land units - Ideas AoH3
      AoH3 will have different types of land units.

      In this topic we will write ideas for new land units. 

       

      So the AoH 3 will have new battle system.


      Representation of the battlefield in the game.


      Land units will be grouped into 3 types. Each unit will have a different recruitment cost, attack, defense, movement speed and upkeep.

      Groups determine the placement of units on the battlefield.


       

      Each unit can be unlocked by researching technology and then upgraded.

       

      Here is the current list of units with upgrades:

      First line:

      Warrior -> Light Footmen -> Heavy Infantry -> Infantry -> Line Infantry -> Modern Infantry

      Hoplites -> Spearmen -> Pikeman -> Elite Pikeman -> Musketeer -> Riflemen -> Mechanized Infantry -> Modern Mechanized Infantry

      First line side:

      Horseman -> Elite Horseman -> Cavalry -> Tank -> Modern Tank

      Second line:

      Archer -> Bowmen -> Crossbowman -> Elite Crossbowman

      Canon -> Field Cannon -> Artillery -> Modern Artillery

      Early Airplane -> Airplane -> Modern Airplane

       

      This is a very early version, so maybe something should be changed?

      Or maybe an idea for a new type of unit with upgrades? I'm waiting for your suggestions.
