Tech/Component/Facility Viewer

DavidG · #1 June 5th, 2002, 04:49 AM

Under the real subject heading of "I got to get a life" I spent half the weekend writing a program that would scan the tech/facility/component data files and let your browse throught them. ie click a tech area it will show you the data about it and what it leads to which you can then click to see the facility info. I like it for checking out what's new in mods. If you try it be sure to click the help menu for the non-obvious areas to click. Beats me if anyone will find it usefull but here it is.

Nice. Two suggestions: add a back button and close the old list when moving to a different area.

What's with some of the listings being in red and some in white?

This tool is just great ! Thanks !
Perhaps a good addition would be a setting/ini file allowing to name and store all mod data directories for quick switching, instead of having to change them by hand every time...

Red-white and blue. Just colors I chose to differentiate between a component, facility and tech area. <Edit: Although I see now some things are being listed in wrong color> Yup had the back button suggestion from a friend. Good idea to save directorys too.

On a Win95 machine (at the office), It wants to update system files. What files would these be?
Thanks.
