Tactical Battle options?

Tired of 'swinging'

from Elemental Forums

Are there any options for the Tactical Battle, or plans to implement something?  The only option I can find in the (pitifully small) manual is about the Tactical Threshold.

 

Here's the problem: When casting, or firing ranged weapons, the display 'swings' to the attacker, and follows the missile to the target.  It's really annoying, and I'd like to turn that off.  It's not helped by the auto-switch from the target to my next unit.

 

Simply being able to set it to a static view would be a wonderful thing.  Even more so if it's in there, and I just haven't figured out how to toggle it. :p

Should be fixed in tonights patch judging by the notes - tactical camera only moving when the unit is offscreen.

I would like to see some Tactical Battle Options as well like the following.

 

  • Cloth Map Mode
  • Quick Combat (No attack animations)
  • Quick Move
  • Health Bars Over Units
  • Stats over units (So you can see at a glance units power without having to mouse each on)

Yeah, I do that already.  But it still swings.  It's almost enough to give me motion sickness, when I have several archer units firing, and I don't get motion sickness.
