Active Point Checkbox

[Jhamin]

I'm loving the ability to turn off the active point display, but I notice that I don't seem to be able to turn it off in a compound power.
Each power can be set to not display it's active points, but the compound still does.

Oops. Mised that one.

I'll get that taken care of in the next update.

I didn't realize this could be turned on or off. Where is that option at?

[Jhamin]

It's a new feature in 1.26. Just open up a power window & look for the checkbox.

Isn't it cool?

[Nato]

D'oh! Thought I had updated but hadn't really. Thanks!

I must be going nuts, but I have the latest version on the computer (it says 1.27 on the load page and 1.26 on the template page), but when I select Energy Blast there is no box to click, but when I select Custom Power there is a box to check. Is this Display Active Point option only for certain powers?

Dan stated it only appeared for powers with lims (ie. different real and active costs) if that helps?

Thanks. I guess I missed that.

Correct. It makes no sense for someone to say "Display the Active Points" when they wouldn't be displayed anyway.

Active Points (on normal Powers) are only displayed where there are Mods applied.

Interface suggestion: Having the box present but greyed might be less confusing.

v2 suggestion: Have a universal default for this that is changeable by the user.
