Unify displayed times

[Anonymissimus]

When taking a cargo, parcel or passenger contract, could all those times please be displayed in days and hours, since later on they are also displayed in days + hours in the manifest screen ? Or alternatively, display the times in the manifest screen using only hours as well ? Albeit days + hours is better I think.
When I consider accepting some contract I take my calculator all the time to judge/compare the times with those of contracts already accepted.

A contract that has to be completed within more than 40 days, from one corner diagonally to the other, is quite a lot, allows for some "wrong" jumps etc and still an early arrival, while ~25 for the same distance may be too tight and doesn't allow for an "early finish bonus".
(Eh...what was that in hours ?)

This is OXPable. Place the following as a missiontext.plist file

Code: Select all

{
    "oolite-contracts-time-format" = "[oolite-contracts-time-format-days] days, [oolite-contracts-time-format-spare-hours] hours";
}

EDIT: the reason this isn't done by default is so that the time units on the contract matches the time units on the route planner display.

time units on the route planner display.

That's another one. Not OXPable I suppose ?
