X-Wing ruleset: Conversion of strings to upper case

Issue #269 resolved
Dez E created an issue

For the X-Wing rule set, strings which are eventually rendered in the targeting computer should be converted to upper case. Most missions in the original game are defined in upper case, but there are some examples, such as TOD2M01, where some F/Gs are specified in lower case (including their cargo contents), which looks a bit off.

Strings for conversion include:

  • F/G name

  • Cargo contents

    I disagree. It's responsibility of the mission designer to keep a consistent casing. X-Wing displayed names in lowercase if they were so in the mission files.

    This is both correct and incorrect. The names did display in lower case in the map. But they did not display in lowercase on the CMD. Pictures included.

    Very interesting. I will apply uppercase to designation and cargo depending on the ruleset.
