public final class ShowCreatureDetails extends KDialog
A dialog frame that displays lots of (almost static) information about one specific creature type. i.e the power/skill, the musterings and the abilities in the different hazards. Non-static information that might be shown is the number of creatures left in the caretaker's stack. The dialog is thought to be popped up and closed if needed, displaying information about one selected creature type. The info in the dialog is updated if needed. Implementation details: The dialog mainly contains one JTextEdit control which itself display HTML text! It is thinkable, that the HTML text comes from an URL (easy to implement). Currently the whole HTML is built line by line like a servlet would do it. To figure out some of the more difficult properties of the creature I "simulate" a tiny battlefield, where the creature in question engages other creatures in different hazard terrains. This is of course highly dependent on the battle implementation. It can easily break. I tried to be very generic -- things that might break, should break on compilation time, and not display wrong information. TODO this dialog should have a SaveWindow attached to it. TODO hexside Hazards Clemens: I started adding the hexside hazards, but that is not completed; for one, the simulatedXXX setup cannot easily be extended calculate that right, and there it is dependent on "atop XXX" or "below XXX" . So, I leave the extended table creation there, but do not add the hexside hazards into the hazards Collection so that it just shows same as before. There is a lot of things that need improvement, see 2136671 Show creature detail window...
