Hello my fellow tankers! If you, like me, have been confused since 0.8.0 came out you'll like this. I found a mod that made the tech tree more compact, and i started going through the files. I noticed I would be able to make them vertical :o

After i had started working on it i looked if someone else had done the same, and they had. But what they lacked was the pretty lines(The hardest part about the whole thing)

Thanks to a post EW_ did in his topic i finally was able to solve the problem I had been having these last days!
The one i wrote about here!

Screens:
Spoiler

The reason why there's only lines and no arrows is because the arrows points in wierd directions sometimes. So instead i made the lines easier to understand, by going down, side, then up to the tank beside :D

Sadly... This does not affect the research areas of the tanks. That would be a much bigger effort.. And seeing how many dislikes as it is now perhaps WG will do it themselves. Until then, enjoy :o

Tech Tree Styles: (Not high contrast, Yet. But rightclick working)

Great job!I'm so confused when I'm looking at the tech tree,it's easier to look a vertical tree than a horizontal one.

Keep up the good work!

nice work, I dislkie the Hoazontal tec tree As well but the main resion WG did it was so as to slip the prem tanks into the apropreate lines. if you could find a way to slip them into the tree great :Smile_great:

if you look there are plenty of tanks out there that they ant done yet and i suspect many more prem tanks and hopfully normal tanks for them to fill in the blanks with.

Well i can put the premiums anywhere i want, or remove them compleatly from the Tech Tree. I put them beside so you won't get confused by them clogging up the real deal. Perhaps they should be on the right side instead, so they wouldn't push the Tree out for those with low res :D

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I think they are a bit complicated too myself. Now that i've fixed the problem i had, perhaps i can make them easier to understand.

+1 and fantastic work.

Was about to suggest similar around the 3001H but you are too efficient clearly!

Do you think you should increase the distance lines drop down before going across slightly? Just thinking that when the lines are faded due to lack of research, then junctions can be hard to see (maybe I am just a bit blind). To take an example, the VK3002DB. perhaps dropping them a few pixels will make them easier to see when they are not possible but you are planning ahead. Just a suggestion and hope you dont think I am critisising. Edit : separating them has helped already but see what you think.

Awesome! thanks for this! ..... Why the hell WG couldn't just originally do the tree like this in 8.0 is beyond me... who the hell thought the horizontal mess they made was a good idea I wonder...

Yeah... Someone should mod the SWF to remove the damn research/credits buttons from the Tech Tree xD

They do indeed get hidden at the DB. They aren't compleatly in the middle yet! So 3-4 pixels i could put them down :D

Don't worry, as long as you don't sound like a prick i'm happy ^^

EDIT: There, now that's "fixed"(better atleast), it's in the middle between now!

I didn't even try that one because the lines looked hideous xD I did take a look in the XMLs though, in which he had barely done anything about the lines.
