In game attacking options.

Post by Hoff »

The update what was just made was a nice addition but how about even more... Say you have selected to attack from siam. Then I think that the attack box should be limited to the territories that you can attack from siam. And if you choose where to attack from, the attack to box will change accordingly. This will greatly increase the game play and make things run smoother for the player. Anyone else agree?

Well, it was Pedro's thread originally.

Lack, is it really any harder than an xml file? I'm sure there are more than a few of us who'd do the necessary coding if you'd let us.

this was my first ever suggestion post made here. (I think it must take a load of extra programming as it seems such a simple, yet slow to impliment upgrade) - also, with the amount of new maps being added per month its a lot of work.

I think that the Classic map, which seems to be the all out favourite of most map polls, should have this idea added to it as so many people play this.

i agree. i like how the country conquered is the country you attack FROM next, but its silly to have an option to attack Quebec when you just conquered India

Just from my experience with those sorts of things where the lists change accordingly, wouldn't this mean a bunch more loading? Could make things slower. Every time you pick a new country to attack from the list of countries to attack would have to update. I don't know, i think at best we'll break even in smoothness and time.

I'm with him ^^^

Not like it's a major problem anyway.

One of these days I'll implement this suggestion as part of the AJAX upgrade. You see, Banana is right it would require the whole screen (map, log, chat...) to reload each time you changed the "from" country. But the beauty of AJAX is that you can make certain elements of the screen load seperately and quickly. It will be grand :P
