Decaying shots in 2.42.9m

(1/1)

Numsgil:
Wanted to enable shot decays (I'm using enitor comesum, so I'm talking as big as it gets), but found that it's been moved to a menu item!  The menu item isn't checked even though the default seemed to have it checked.  Checking and unchecking it fixed the problem, so this is pretty minor.

EricL:
I had to move it to a menu item since we have reached the limit on the number of controls VB allows on a single form with the options dialog.  As new features are added which really have to be on the options dialog because they are per-species or whatever, others that can and perhaps should be get moved elsewhere get moved.  I view the Shots... menu as the place to hang future shot features: if we want a toggle for making shots visible, for having some shots last longer than others, for viewing shot properties, etc.

Will address the initialization issue next drop.

Numsgil:
You can get around that VB limit on the number of controls by using arrays of controls.  It's been a while since I played with it, but using arrays you can have as many controls as you want.
