First off, Apologies if this is the wrong place for patches (though in a post, you said that patches are always welcome, and to add them to Bugzilla). This patch changes the behaviour and look of the human scrollwheel list:
Unusable items (armour, battery pack) are in grey and are skipped by weapnext and weapprev.
Weapons without any ammo are in red (still selectable). Everything else is cyan.
Will attach patch in next update. It's against SVN revision 802.
I realize this is assigned; I just want to state (without having looked at the code) that this sort of tweak would be very nice.
(Semi-related: It probably wouldn't be too terribly hard to autosort your upgrades in the scrollwheel menu either, so that all of the 'unusables' are at one end, with weapons in the front and a MedKit (if not yet used) right before the unusables. I'll look at the code and see if it's rocket science or not. And open a new bug if I implement it, of course.)
Created attachment 955 [details] The aforementioned patch Kinda strangely coded. I tried to follow the existing code style. Sorry for any deviations.
