[REL] Preview building to be build [57164]

http://www.nanodesu.info/stuff/pa/mods/selectionpreview.zip

Shows a preview of the building you've selected to be build.
Especially helpful in combination with hotbuild, so you dont select the wrong thing to be build with a hotkey.

Either use the mod manager or add this line to your mod ui list live_game(before the lines of hotbuild!):
'../../mods/selectionpreview/live_game/selection_preview.js'

neat

keeps working in 54357

Also made a variation of this mod.
It shows the build hover menu ( I find it more usefull cause the icons of factories are too alike )

Code:

var lastTimeActivated = new Date().getTime();
var previewIsVisible = false;

var oldExecuteStartBuild = model.executeStartBuild; //reference to original
model.executeStartBuild = function(event, index) {
    var item = model.buildItems()[index];
    model.setBuildHover(index); //show info
    previewIsVisible = true;
    oldExecuteStartBuild(event, index); //execute original action
};

model.fabModeSelected = ko.computed(function() {
    return model.mode() === 'fab' ;
});



function checkIfVisibleExpired() {
    var dt = new Date().getTime();
    if(previewIsVisible && model.fabModeSelected() !== 'fab' && dt - lastTimeActivated > 2000) {
        lastTimeActivated = dt;
        model.clearBuildHover();
        previewIsVisible = false;
    }
}

setInterval(checkIfVisibleExpired, 1500);
