More Lenses

Description
Introduction
The goal of this mod is to add more lenses to the game, that help with empire management and in general quality of life improvements.

ATTENTION CQUI AND HBUI USERS: If you have CQUI or HBUI, you don't need to download this. This mod is already included in them.

Lenses Added

Alternate Settler: With the settler lens already applied, hold CTRL. This will apply the alternate lens that highlights the radius of potential city under the cursor plot, along with overlapped plots, hills, and resources in the city range.

Builder: This lens highlights unimproved resources, hills and removable features. This lens auto applies when a builder is selected (can be disabled in the settings panel).

City Overlap: Highlights how many cities are being overlapped from a given plot. The range for overlap can be changed from the UI. Useful to select where to place Colosseum, factory, etc.

Resource: Highlights resources on the map based on their category (Bonus vs Strategic vs Luxury) and if they are connected or not. Also shows how many you own vs. global discovered amount (helpful in Monopolies mode).

Scout: Highlights goody huts on the map. Automatically applies when a scout / ranger is selected (can be disabled in the settings panel. Can also be automatically applied for all military units through the settings panel)

Naturalist: Shows possible locations where a national park can be built.

Archaeologist: Highlights artifacts and shipwrecks.

Barbarian: Highlights barbarian encampments on the map.

Wonder: Highlights natural and player made wonders.

Other UI Mods by me:
Better Trade Screen
Better Espionage Screen

Hey can anyone help me set a hotkey for this ? I'm really bad at modding and can't figure out what it is I actually need to do to set a certain lens (resources) to a hotkey. I thought I could figure it out by getting "Extra Hotkeys" mod but I can't tell what I need to add to that to make the resource lens enable on a key press. Any help would be much appreciated!

Follow up, the code that assigns the priorities is here, starting @ line 33
https://github.com/astog/MoreLenses/blob/master/Lenses/Builder/BuilderLens_Config_Default.lua

@JJACO - I had the same question, found some info in the source that can be seen on github: https://github.com/astog/MoreLenses/blob/master/MoreLenses_Colors.sql

The colors indicate the priority the mod assigns each tile.

The tile gets assigned a priority 1 thru 7, each rank is a different color.

Priorities:
-- Priority - Dangerous (Red color)

-- Priority - 1 (Purple)
-- Priority - 1 (Purple but whitened to show lower priority)
-- Priority - 2 (Violet)
-- Priority - 3 (Blue)
-- Priority - 4 (Teal)
-- Priority - 5 (Green)
-- Priority - 6 (Yellow)
-- Priority - 7 (White'ish)

-- Priority - Nothing (Grey color)


Summary:
While this brief look at the code didn't answer *why* each priority is assigned, it at least showed there is a priority system and which color is corresponds to which priority.

ok im blind, but does it say what each color means? obv the pink color means its important and red means enemy nearby. But what about Green, dark blue and light blue?
Gray Pockets 22 Mar @ 9:30am 
Yes, the mod description mentions that.

conflicted with CQUI-Lite: the builder lens not showing

There are too many lenses for me.

The .git folder is included in this mod.

You can do it in the settings panel for the Lense mod. 3 horizontal lines, left of the "Lenses" list.

Start by finding the location of the mod on your machine, most likely in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\workshop\content\289070\871712879"

Then open the file "Settings\ml_settings.sql"

Modify the line 2:
FROM

("ML_AutoApplyBuilderLens", 1),

TO

("ML_AutoApplyBuilderLens", 0),
