Could someone make smaller unit cards?

[alhoon]

Does anyone know how to make the unit cards somewhat smaller? Like 20% smaller (or just thinner) so more unit cards could fit in the same space?
It's been proven to be very easy to change the number of units in the campaign map that an army can hold. However, in battle the cards don't fit the space so you can only see 21 cards and you have to control the rest of the units by hand.
If someone could make a mod that reduced the size of the cards by 20% then 24 unit cards could be visible.

Thats not possible, cause the unit cards have a fix position in the interface. And this is hardcoded
So when you make the unit card smaller via tga file and transparancy, you would have a big space left and right in the UI

But... when I add more units than 20 on the army, I can actually see the cards of the 21 first.
Are you sure it's hardcoded and not just "unexplored"?

I would ask Topcat (T.C), the ui is written in lua so maybe he can take a quick look.

Thanks, I'll PM him.

In theory it's possible, but it's something that would be very awkward to test
...
If you use taws UI converter and convert the relevant UI layout file. If you look down through it and find the element you could probably just change the x y dimensions of a card. But there may be more to it than that.

See? It's possible! But hard.
SInce I don't even know what that UI converter is, I'll ask Taw.
