Louie the Toad Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 It would be great if upon selecting a transporting unit, the passengers and tows that it carries were indicated. Or at least that it was carrying something. Tweaky Toad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subvet Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 If you bring up the details of the unit the passengers/tows show up. It would be nice if there was an indicator on the unit main screen though. What would be really cool is if that indicator on the unit main screen also clickable which would then activate that passenger/tow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Good suggestions! At last something useful instead of that useless %@#&&@!!! map! Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubfoot Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Good idea indeed. I'd also like to see the camera pan and zoom features on the main interface next to the other camera buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrold Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 I wouldn't mind having the ability to select the passenger unit with a hotkey or somefink after the transport unit is highlighted. BDH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelThat useless map is really a placeholder for when you have clicked on a unit and are shoring its status. So it does have a point. Still, a passengers button would be cool.

aka_tom_w Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 I agree Some way to know "at a glance" (without hitting Return on EVERY unit) that a unit had passengers or not would be greatly appreciated -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomm Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Suggested years ago: First Click on vehicle selects vehicle Second click on vehicle selects passenger 1 Third click on vehicle selects passenger 2 ... for view levels where passenger cannot be selected any more.

The window refreshes automatically. Nevertheless a passenger-marking would be very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Galanti Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 An easier way to select passengers would be nice. Sometimes it's a chore to select that HQ or panzershrike in a Halftrack. The multiple click thing would be fine... Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomm Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Another thing that always bothered me: the additional mouse click necessary to display kills! Suggestion: Press Enter once: Unit Details Press Enter a second time: Display Kills Press Enter a third time (or Escape): Close Window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianc Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 *bump* I suggested this shortly after CMBO's release as well, but it appears to have gone the way of the roster... ianc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenI agree, but in the meantime I've found that turning off vehicle graphics shows your passengers quite clearly. They're the guys levitating 4 feet from the ground. It also makes them easier to select. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
