Black Market Trades Intel

Currently, the Black Market lets you buy items for Intel, and sell items for Supplies.
This mod provides the option to sell items for Intel. ( since I find the intel resource
the hardest to gain, and most susceptible to the RNG )

A new "Trade for Intel" button has been added next to the Confirm button. Clicking this button
instead of Confirm will sell your items for Intel instead of supplies.


Three items are in file XcomBlackMarketTradesIntel.INI:

SALE_PERCENT=100
This allows you to specify the percentage of the trade value for supplies that
you want to receive as Intel.

Example: If you change this INI value to 50, and the item is listed as selling for 40 supplies,
you will get 20 Intel. You can change this value to whatever you feel is fair. Default
value is 100.

I do not recommend setting below 33 since I do not round up. If you set it too low, you may
get nothing for very low priced items.

BUTTON_X and BUTTON_Y specify the location of the button. I coudn't figure out
how to dynamically position the new button, due to their use of Flash resources.
The default coordinates work at my resolution of 1920x1080.
If you have a different resolution, you may need to tweak these values to get the
button to show at a reasonable location.

It sometimes takes the button a few seconds to show up, so be patient. :)

The Black Market screen only shows the Supplies amount in the upper right corner. You will
not see the change in Intel until you close the screen and return to the Global Map.


If you have any problems, please let me know. If you find this mod to be useful,
a Thumbs Up rating would be very much appreciated.



Update 6/20/2016: Change to allow compatibility with Grimy's loot mod.
