| Summary | 0011108: Few usability suggestions | ||||
| Description | 1. Make right click cancel currently selected action. 2. If possible also use right button dragging to drag the map - not middle button (or give option to that effect?). 3. Big text message on the screen when action switches to other side. That blue quarry next to my red town is a victim of not noticing that it's a blue action now. | ||||

+1 to the 'make right click abort action' suggestion. I was about to suggest the same ;)... |
|
|
In the meantime, hitting escape cancels the action. Regarding 2, I've never seen a game do that before. That sounds pretty odd to me? Regarding 3 I see your point, and I considered that, but it seems like it would get annoying when you are trying to flip through turns quickly, or if it's blocking your screen, you know? Perhaps just showing that when it auto-flips rather than you choosing end turn? Or making it so that you HAVE to hit end-turn instead of it flipping automatically? That last probably makes the most sense of all. |

* The turn no longer automatically ends when you are out of action points. This is super confusing and leads to mis-placed buildings. |
|
|
Marking as complete: * Right-clicking now cancels the current order you are in the process of giving, same as hitting Escape does. This is why I don't like multiple suggestions per mantis ticket, FYI. Either I have to have a ticket hanging open perpetually because one of the suggestions is not addressed, or I have to close a ticket I'd normally leave open (the right-click thing). |

I have no idea where I got used to dragging map with right mouse button.... middle one seemed out of place for me. Making end of turn not automatic will help with confusion for sure :) |
