| Summary | 0010586: Visually indicate which units have moved | ||||
| Description | This feature request covers three separate but closely related features. This feature request is distantly related to bugs 0010585 and 0010579. In the sense that implementing a solution to this feature request, without considering those bugs, might lead to re-writing a lot of code. (1) The game should make a visual change to units that have already moved. For example, gray them out. (2) There should also be a way to quickly find units that can still take orders. (3) Finally there should be a way to tell units to "hold." By "hold", I mean "stay on the current space, and don't appear on the list specified in (2)." (This concept might be called something else, depending on which strategy game you're basing your vocabulary on.) Many strategy games include ways to help keep players from forgetting about units, which is very easy to do when you have a lot of them. Warcraft 3 puts a large icon on your screen when you have idle workers. The Civilization series has had orders for "fortify" (hold-forever), "sentry" (hold-until-danger-approaches), and "done" (hold-until-end-of-turn) since the first game. | ||||

You realize that (1) is already in there, right? And always has been? The NPCs that have already acted go half-transparent... |
