Two Requests for the Next Patch

Post by canuckgamer »

I would like to have the option of undoing a deployment before your next action. I have deployed units mistakenly in the wrong hex because deployments always default to the unit at the top of the list.
I would also like to see the capital ships that have been sunk listed in casualties under the reports tab like it is in War Plan Pacific.
Thank you.

+1. That would be really nice! I have myself mistakenly deployed in the wrong hex a few times over the games...

#1 I might be able to do.
#2 Well they are really 2 capital ships. But I will see if I can.

I was previously reporting that hotkeys were not working anymore. In fact, they are working only using US keyboard keys. This was broken in the latest patch. Minor issue, looks like nobody else complain.

They are common keys. Odd they don't work on other keyboards.

That's odd. It's a common key.

It might too much to ask, but an immediate cancel button for the garrison mode would be nice too if possible. Some of us have fat fingers and might press it instead of the truck button... like I just did... :oops:

Before disbanding one unit, a tooltip to say how much I will gain in terms of manpower, PP, ...

OMG, I do this all the time and kick myself. I probably spend several hundred PP each game switching units back after accidentally swapping them. That and loading onto ships instead of truck supply or something (which is thankfully cancelable). In my case it's not fat fingers it's me thinking about something else and pure user error. lol.

Like what it is done for disbanding units, the garrison button could be protected by ALT + the needed click. This would solve the problem.
