powers Commands Popmenu including Long Range Teleport Available Zones version 20240723a

[Jacke]

To access common commands shared by most or all my toon alts without having them take up slots in Powers Trays, I've brought them together into a Commands Popmenu.  Issue 27 Page 1 added Popmenu features to show icons and recharge state in Popmenus.

 

Version 20240723a release for Homecoming i28p1, 2024 Jul 23 Tue

 

Download the Popmenu file here.

 

Commands.20240723a.mnu

 

The popmenu file has its version in its name.  New version releases will just require replacing the file without any need to change binds or macros.

 

2nd post below contains the CHANGELOG.

 

3rd post below contains the INSTALLATION and USAGE instructions.

INSTALLATION

 

Quote

Place the popmenu file in this location in your City install, creating the folders if they don't exist.  Use only one Commands popmenu file in your install.  After replacing the file, restart your City client program to load the new popmenu.

 

<City install root>/data/texts/English/Menus/

Finding Your City Install Root on Windows for HC Launcher, Tequila, Island Rum

Replace "English" with the language of your install (see the Wiki page for details).

https://hcwiki.cityofheroes.dev/wiki/Popmenu_(Slash_Command)

 

On your current logged in toon, invoke the Popmenu to see the Commands popmenu for that toon.  Best invoked by keypress, allowing placement of the mouse pointer to the upper left to allow the submenus to cascade to the right and down.

 

Bind it to a key, example 'P' or 'X' (I use both):

• /bind P "popmenu Commands"
• /bind X "popmenu Commands"

Or create a macro and put it in your trays:

• /macro CMD "popmenu Commands"

 

 

 

USAGE

 

To select powers with the mouse, hover your mouse in the upper left of your screen, then press the key to trigger the bind.  You'll then see the main menu with each entry cascading to a submenu or a power.

 

If a power is available, its name is bright aqua.  If not available, either not owned, not recharged, or disabled (as are self-rez powers if the toon isn't defeated), its name is greyed out.

 

The White Letters are the menu entries' Hotkeys, allowing quick entry of commands.  For example, to invoke the Ouroboros Portal Power, I press "P T O".

 

 

To invoke Rest, I press "P R R", then after recovered, press "P R R" again to turn it off.

 

 

At the bottom are extra entries and menus to show by being bright aqua whether the Long Range Teleport Power is unlocked ("LRT Available Zones") as well as what Zones are currently unlocked for LRT access.

It's kind of you to offer this, but the quick travel macro button only takes up one slot in my power tray, so not really an issue as far as I can tell (though, possibly someone does fill the slots in all nine power trays.  Hard to imagine that, though.  Maybe with emote macros or something? 🤷‍♂️).

There's several dozens of Powers packed into this Popmenu, including some Emotes.  Take a look at the Usage section of the 3rd Post (the one above yours).  That's just 3 submenus of this Popmenu.

 

Nearly all those Powers in this Popmenu I no longer have to put in my Tray Slots.  Even with this Popmenu, for my L50 Toons, I still have 70 Tray Slots or more of the 90 possible filled with Powers or Macros.  To me, having this Popmenu is a vital part of my UI.

 

Also at the bottom, I have menus allowing me to see what Zones a particular Toon has unlocked for the LRTP, without needing to use it.
