They're many subsystem that I barely understand, and I don't have a working debugger so I don't get to see dynamic behaviors, I'm only using source code to understand what's going on.
Are you on Windows? It's pretty easy to set up Unity (the free version) with VisualStudio (the free version) as a debugger.

On Linux, using MonoDevelop (and Unity Editor as a last resort ;) )

Pango, just checking in and saw this, and have to thank you - been hoping for this for a while! (viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1042) Any chance you'll be able to tweak the inventory UI for the other part of that request - "show full item data (all enchants) in mouseover tooltips" (which would also allow for the gold amount/weight to be constantly displayed in the info panel; that panel would no longer be necessary for item data, as it's too small to display all such data in any case - see sample screenshot at viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1614&start=10#p18420)? As also suggested by the appreciation for that screenshot later in the topic, this would make the inventory UI even better!

I've been pretty clear on this in the past Mike, this is not a change I want in core. Have explained my reasoning, not doing it again. If you want this then it needs to be part of a modern UI mod.

@Pango, I've used MonoDevelop on Linux to debug DFU. I wouldn't call it great or amazingly stable, but it does work. Not sure what's required to get it to work, it just came integrated with Unity editor way back when DFU was using an older version in 2017.

Maybe I'll give the mod a shot. I always wanted a display in the inventory screen that shows the weight-to-value ratio (or at LEAST the value for weapons and armor) for items in your inventory. It makes it easy (probably too easy) to maximize the selling value of what you can carry.

Hazelnut, I don't mean this to be smart, but I really didn't think you were speaking for everyone - I'm well aware you'd taken the UI as far as you wanted to go personally, but of course you're not the only core contributor, as shown by pango's work in this very topic. So is everyone on board with this decision?

It seems the MonoDevelop support has been deprecated, so I don't know either what's required, or if it can still be made to work...

Hmm, well for what it's worth it still seems to work with newer versions of unity from the install that came with v5.5 or whatever version it was back then. (I forget) Shame they've dropped support though.

Hey Pango, Just curious about what happened with this. It doesn't appear to have made it into any builds. FWIW, I thought it was a great add and I remember it every time I need to click on the GOLD button and then back out just to see how many GPs I have.

I was still unsure about that temporary DaggerfallUnityItem...
How well, I submitted it nonetheless: https://github.com/Interkarma/daggerfal ... /pull/1590
