Post by mutterfudder »

I hit the add PT boat button instead of the make task force button and it is getting quite annoying.

Can it be moved?

I love puns.

I entered a pun writing contest. I submitted ten puns to improve my chances of winning, but unfortunatley no pun in ten did. [:D]

Since you're moving things, can you move about 2/3 of those troops out of Singapore? They're in my way [:D]

While we're complaining about buttons -

How about making a right-click move? Right-click the TF - no TF window pops up, you don't have to click destination button - click the DH and get a path and that is it - no going back to the TF window popup and then having to wait a second or two for the TF window to go away.

BTW - why does it take so long for the window to go away? If it is because the path needs to be calculated that should be done in the background after the tf window is brought back up.

Moving 30-40 subs is painfully slow. A right-click move would really help - even if only for subs and no other tf types.
Quote from Snigbert -

"If you mess with the historical accuracy, you're going to have ahistorical outcomes."

"I'll say it again for Sonny's sake: If you mess with historical accuracy, you're going to have
ahistorical outcomes. "

Hello...

On my system, the TF window "goes away" instantly. It may be a system issue on your end.

A somewhat related request that could be fulfilled with a minimal amount of coding:

Can we have the PgUp/PgDn keys working in the Combat Summary screen?
Would make it more convenient for quickly browsing through the events.
