pop ups

August 19, 2003 8:11 PM from

Those little pop ups that appear when the mouse moves over an icon need an on/off switch. In my gigantic galaxy, I ended up near the edge. While trying to look at the stars on edge of the mini-map, the pop up covers whole sectors. (:(

I agree. This is also a problem on smaller galaxies when there are resources or survey food at the edge of the screen.

Pop-ups are a great help, if any game ever really needed them to streamline game play and reduce the learning curve GC would be it. Some games have a timer on them (i.e. you hover over the pop-up and after x seconds it appears and then after x seconds it disapears), other games use a left click to activate/deactivate the pop-ups (that works best in my opinion).

So please don't do away with them all together Carielf or make their on/off absolute . . . I'd like to see more info in some of the splash pop-ups infact (especialy orbiting ships (stats) and TGs/Techs in the diplomacy screen (i.e. Whats that tech do again?)) . . .

If this is already in 1.09 (which I'm not runing yet) please ignore this post entirely . . . :notsure:
