Boarding Options

Description
This is a simple mod that adds a few menu prompts for handling a boarding mission. It also adds a display that shows your marines' strength and the target ship's boarding resistance.

Here are the current menu options at each part of the boarding process:

Stage 1 - Pre-Boarding Options*

Option 1: Disable Engines/Jumpdrive
Option 2: Disable Weapons
Option 3: Launch Pods
Option 4: Abort

Stage 1B - Target Moving Too Fast / Pods Not Launched Yet

Option 1: Disable Engines
Option 2: Attempt Boarding
Option 3: Abort

Stage 2 - Pods Landed / Support Options

Option 1: Normal Support
Option 2: Target Weapons Only
Option 3: Use Hacking Only

Stage 2B - Pods Landed / Hacking Options
Option 1: Start/Continue Hacking
Option 2: Find A New Target
Option 3: Disable Hacking

*It is recommended to use disable engine, jumpdrive, or weapon options if those systems were disabled by hacking. Destroying the hacked objects resets them so that they can be repaired without any delay.

Bump. Doesn't work. The pods won't even launch.

I'm not sure what mod this is conflicting with, but the boarding doesn't wait to start, if I pick any option other than board or abort the pods launch instantly.

you are right. it took about 6 min to reappear

I forget why, but being able to escape the options at that point seemed necessary. It's supposed to come back up after a minute or two anyways. The boarding push will count as unsupported, but you shouldn't lose all your marines unless their strength is just way too low.

I found an issue:
When i have to decide between "weapons only" and "normal support", I press escape sometimes accidentally. then the dialog vanishes and nothing happens => all my marines lost

Yeah I never found anything wrong, so it was probably a mod conflict they were having.

It works well in 4.30. There seems to be no problem yet. +1
