Auto flash firmware of processors from clipboard and key
Describe the content or mechanics you are proposing.
I propose that when the clipboard changes, all processors having a key should be upgraded automatically (with a cool flare effect). 1 - A special variable that must be the first statement of the code (no need to parse all)
set firmware "$NAME / $VERSION"
When the clipboard changes the 1st line is parsed allowing to get NAME and VERSION Then, all processors having NAME with a different version should be automatically upgraded.
A bonus to this would be to change the color of a processor with another system var.
This feature seems easy to implement as all part are already here. Each upload could cost anything (some thorium, silicium, energy ...).
Describe how you think this content will improve the game. If you're proposing new content, mention how it may add more gameplay options or how it will fill a new niche.
As there is no debugger, it can become tricky to polish a script with the print function (and null vars ingame that helps a lot). Uploading hundred of times the code becomes a tiring task.
This feature allows to upgrade many and many processors (even only on the current map is ok for me). When an external editor is used, it is really a pain to find / upgrade all processors having the same firmware.
Before making this issue, check the boxes below to confirm that you have acknowledged them.
- [X] I have checked the Trello to make sure my suggestion isn't planned or implemented in a development version.
- [X] I am familiar with all the content already in the game or have glanced at the wiki to make sure my suggestion doesn't exist in the game yet.
- [X] I have read README.md to make sure my idea is not listed under the "A few things you shouldn't suggest" category.
I'm surprised that there is no reaction at all :-( I tough a lot more people were using procs and were bored of copying / paste hundred time / day. I have about 20 procs per map
