Spyglass Value's reset To Vanilla For CMV3

[Luke159]

I expect not everyone is happy with the new spyglass value's and would rather have the ability to see what the enemy has in terms of amount of troops, calibure and cannon type mounted, hull and sail damage etc etc. Well i have just uploaded that for you and here it is. Standard Spy Glass Settings For CMV3

Thanks! As much as I love realism, not having this little feature has been driving me mad. I was going to try to fix it myself, but I hadn't found the responsible file yet. Now if only the notes in these .c files were in English.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

My recommendation: Put a toggle on this and any other mods that require it in the next version.

As for as searching for things in the files, feel free to ask us anything you like.
Usually we've got a fair idea where to find things or otherwise we can figure out where it might be...
In my case, this is more related to PotC, but my PotC knowledge applies largely to CoAS as well.

Would it be easier to and make it so it looks like this. the vanilla value's for each spyglass and an added section for the realistic spyglass.

Then you'll also need this in, for example, _mod_on_off.c
(that's the name of the CoAS file, right?):

#define REALISTIC_SPYGLASSES	1
// Set to 0 to reset spyglasses to stock settings (new game required)

Thanks Pieter, that works. :will

Yes _mod_on_off is the file name for COAS.
