As an option I would like that. As a second option I would like, similar to 'don't change anything' in other military sites, the possibility to simply turn off the kick-out algorithm for the trainingsite. Top Quote |

So let's give the milsites a third button "no exchanging", and also give trainingsites the same three buttons to prefer rookies/heroes/any (default any) plus a checkbox whether soldiers will be kicked out after a while (default on)? +1 Top Quote |

For me this is at least worth to try if it is not to much work. Top Quote |

That kind of idea sounds alright to me. My only concern is that it could be a bit of UI overload - lots of different buttons, not totally clear exactly what they do or why you'd use them until you're an experienced player... The buttons would certainly make it smoother and easier for players to do the strategies that they are already doing through arcane micromanagement invocations - so it's probably good to streamline it. But on the other hand, weird tricks-of-the-trade are sometimes considered a part of advanced gameplay anyway. And by making it straight-forward to control this stuff, you kind of make it standard part of normal gameplay rather than an advanced edge-case strategy. (I'm already in two minds about the new controls that allow players to select specifically which units to attack with.) In any case, I'd give a cautious +1 to this idea. But I am concerned about unnecessarily complex UI. (And totally aside from all these ideas, I think the UI of the game is not as nicely polished as the game mechanics are.) Edited: 2020-04-03, 10:40

Bug report is up: https://github.com/widelands/widelands/issues/3827 This might actually be a somewhat bigger feature than it looks like at first glance but I believe it'll be worth the effort.

It was not forgotten. It was not agreed. Top Quote |

In General when we look at concepts i am sad about that whenever someone presents a good concept, the first thing is to make this person personally down ... I think we should talk about the idea and not the person. For example I feel that all my ideas are smashed only because they are from me no matter how many new concepts they give. We shall be a society where the goal is to make this game as fun or as good as it gets and not a game where you rate ideas depending on who brings them up. Edited: 2020-04-03, 15:11

The argument for the healing button was to make the game more diverse (your talking about the trip circle which was not agreed) Top Quote |
