[0.915] First Playthrough - Feature Requests

from Elemental Forums

Just won my first big map, an wanted to get some suggestions off my mind.

  1. I think enemy armies are appearing too sudden in one territory, i would like to have some more range on cities and outposts sight.
  2. I'd like to know how long tribute protection is holding, couldn't find it anywhere
  3. I'd like the ability to grop units together, so i won't have to regroup every time i conquer a city. Groups could also be displayed even when in cities.
  4. I'd like some icons to show up at the units on the upper left, showing if they have movement orders or guard orders.
  5. I'd like a "continue to move" option for my units.
  6. I'd like to modify how my units will be grouped on the battlefield, because mostlky the archers are in front blocking the melee at the beginning of battle. Not good.
  7. In tactical combat i'd like to have the ability to move the screen, not just rotate und change angle.
  8. It would be nice if units on the map could have a colored disk or something under them to see what nation they're from.

 

I like the game so far, its a nice mix, but controls need a bit of work imho :)

There is a workaround to move the screen, I got used to it by now. Simply zoom out with the mouse wheel and zoom in on a different part of the battlefield.  (Or just leave it zoomed out)

Agree with 1, 3 & 6.

3:  We really need an easier way to have units leave a city together, without losing group bonuses from Tireless March.

7:  Have you tried the left-click drag scroll  ?

Another vote for some level of control over the Order of Battle. If it's too late in the development cycle, then at least put ranged units in the rear!
