[Discontinued] Glassing the Planet

So about the Planet bombardment message
First off I really like your mod. Glassing planets is awesome.

Constructive Criticism: about the message prompt that comes up during bombardment.
It read: My , {Insert my empires name} is fully bombarded. What should we do Next?

It should say something like

{Fleet Name} has completed bombardment of { Planet name}. What should we do next?

Exmaple:
5th Imperial Fleet has completed bombardment of Gallmun I. What should we do next?

Or

We have completed the bombardment of Earth. What should we do next?

GLASS IT FOR THE COVENANT!
Perhaps not but you get the point.

Now when the window for those options for earths fate pops up

3 options Glass it! Nuke it! Keep bombarding.

However on nuke it! and glass it! In the game I am actually playing atm each state they will in this case do X to the Terran Empire.

Which in this case is me .
Glass it! the description of the action says

" Terran Empire will be bombarded into large glass ball permnently. Lives can no longer settle on it.

Nuke it! the description of the action says
" The Terran Empire will be nuked totally. All lives are wasted."

While not trying to be overly critical this really should be corrected because the target is an enemy planet in another empire. It should use the planet name in question. I am not trying to jump on anyone for english language skills.

That said it should definatly state the proper target and on glassing the target should say something more like "People can no longer settle this world" or "All biological Life will forever be wiped from this world"( personally really like that last one). I say biological because techincally the guy at the colonize mod might one day incorporate your mod or something and that allows for the colonzation of sterile worlds like frozen and barren etc. Not to mention the play as robots mod guy well... I doubt the robots will have a problem on glass world. They dont need food... or air.

So if someone was useing those mods or if either of those mods incorproate your mod it wold make sense given that decription is flavor text anyway and that would make it make better sense in a universe context. =)


All that aside time to go commit a little genocide just to remind the galaxy that I can.

Sorry, initially I make the window event triggered directly by on_action, so FROM is the empire who performed bombarding and ROOT is the planet. I later changed how the event is trigger, but forgot to fix the string.

Figuring out FROM and TARGET for a function you didn't write can be so painful sometimes.
