XenonUI

Overview

This OXP replaces all background UI screens with a new look and feel, based on the assumption that the Oolite UI screens are accessed through some form of computer terminal.

The method used to add the backgrounds will mean that the background images of most other OXP's, if they set a background, will be overridden with the Xenon UI images. This is by design.

If an OXP uses background images to convey important information to the player, and the "mission.runScreen" command in the OXP has a "screenID" parameter attached, it is possible to add exceptions to the override by adding the following code to a worldScript:

 var w = worldScripts.XenonUI;
 if (w) w.$addMissionScreenException("mymissionscreenid");

The OXP is made up of two parts: the main XenonUI.oxz, which holds all the config and code, and the XenonUIResources.oxz, which holds all the images. This will allow fast updates to the code section, which is small, without having to download the large resources file regularly.

The images in this OXP are designed for a 16:9 screen ratio. For narrower screens, there is a "Redux" version, which removes all the sidebars, leaving only

Also provided in this OXP is some new title screen theme music.

Installation

16:9 Version

There are two components to the installation: The first part contains all the config and code. The second part contains all the image and music resources. Place the 'XenonUI.oxz' and 'XenonUIResources.oxz' into your 'AddOns' folder and when you start the game, hold down 'Shift' until you see the spinning Cobra.
Alternatively, you can download the expansion using the expansion pack manager in the game itself.

Redux Version (for narrower monitors)

There are two components to the installation: The first part contains all the config and code. The second part contains all the image and music resources. Place the 'XenonReduxUI.oxz' and 'XenonReduxUIResources.oxz' into your 'AddOns' folder and when you start the game, hold down 'Shift' until you see the spinning Cobra.
Alternatively, you can download the expansion using the expansion pack manager in the game itself.

Note: The "Redux" version is incompatible with the 16:9 version. If both are installed, the 16:9 version will take precedence.
