Secret future features concept

[322997am]

I was just reading the cfg files and saw there are some notes there like on the medium landing gear there is a note saying //I think this should have mass next to the phisicssignificance=1 line. Could this mean that squad put notes in the code? I did not read over everything so I do not know much about this. Maybe there is something like //jool is so lonely being the only gas planet or something like that suggesting future features. Please look at this devs and people and reply for I shall continue my search for notes if there are moar notes.:cool:

I'm sure I just read somewhere they managed to get wheels working in the new unity or something and they are adding a medium sized landing gear.

Whatever that means

In the code?

also

PotatoRoid config

maxTemp = 2500 // way hotter than the melting point of "Ore" but oh well.

Yup, melting point of ore is 1810 kelvin

As a developer, I would be shocked if they didn't leave themselves notes on things they wanted to get done. In fact Visual Studio has a special feature that called //TODO that basically just creates a list in the GUI for reminders (the TODO comment itself has been around even longer than Visual Studio, it just didn't do anything special)

The problem is, we don't have the source code, and comments are not compiled so we can't even reverse engineer it. (Not that we would want to)

MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleScienceConverter
		scientistBonus = 0.25	//Bonus per scientist star - need at least one! So 0.25x - 2.5x 
		researchTime = 7	    //Larger = slower.  Exponential!
		scienceMultiplier = 5	//How much science does data turn into?
		scienceCap = 500	    //How much science can we store before having to transmit?		
		powerRequirement = 5	//EC/Sec to research
		ConverterName = Research
		StartActionName = Start Research
		StopActionName = Stop Research

Found this in the Science Lab file, explains some things I guess.

Also on the landing gears:

manufacturer = LightYear Tire Company		// it can't all be [C7 Aerospace Division]

The notes are not only handy, but funny too!
