interface changes

[Instinct]

Hi everyone,
I'm going to tell you a bit about the interface of Addon. :blabla:

Bestways main priority was to give the player a better overview and remove external tabs.
Also the time for each action is reduced, so you can quicker response on every situation.

To do this internal tabs were integrated, they do following:

You will see on the right side of your interface the tabs, where your action buttons are.
All tabs represent an overall action, for example attacks.
Clicking on it will switch the interface to all attack possibilities you have, for example, sniper shot, cover fire, grenade etc.

Also the interface will show you only the actions which your unit can fullfill. That means if you click on a tank it won't display you the action of throwing a grenade.

Each action of the right panel can be drag with the right mouse button into the center panel so you can set your center buttons freely on your own.

"(...) Also the time for each action is reduced, so you can quicker response on every situation (...)"

I´m ok whith that, but also include a game speed setting (even for multyplayer) not the slow-motion flash thing.
Alowing for a more tactical/ realistic! pace if wantedd by the players

looking good

If I realized that correctly , the interface changes so that the most common and used panels are at 1st. page... That's good I think :)

Not exactly,
you won't see any buttons you can't press with the new interface, that means you won't find buttons to unlock gun from truck, when selecting soldier and if you select a truck, you won't see a throw grenade or holster weapon button...

Very nice indeed! 8)
Do you know if there will be any new buttons that we can hear of, functions?

[Instinct]

No actually not, but for example human stance can be changed by clicking only on one button, which will change the crouch, prone, stand...
Same for attach detach guns.

The problem is there are alltime 3 tabs even if the Units u have doesnt got a single option in it and its showen most in grey. So i would prever differnt interface options for each unit, i knwo this would be some work but just telling.

The FoW Addon won't contain any external tabs, it also won't show any buttons you can't press.

yes everybody already agreed on this new customizable interface - as far as i know this is first wargame that has customizable interface 8) - just a tiny request for developers - in addition to netcode improvements may i dare to ask for ATTACK GROUND button - so i wont have to switch between 125mm guns all the time :twisted: just set it attack ground and let it kick some dust - also can we get Shift to use ? like in starcraft where you can plan additional orders with shift... thats all i can remember so far .. :roll:
