Game Editor Improvement - Don't Right-Click Formation

Post by bruce20 »

In the game editor, right-clicking a formation in the force list will delete the entire formation with no warning. I hope future revisions change this functionality. My intuition is to right-click for more info, and not to delete. Also, the Undo command cannot reverse this. In the meantime, any advice besides "save early & save often" is most appreciated. Thanks!

'Intuition' is no replacement for learning something new. Welcome in and you have the right to complain, but I also have the right to ask that you don't ask for things to be changed [:)]

Watch the Info Bar at the bottom of the screen, it explains everything.

I don't think it's deleted, it's cut, so if you right click again it will come back. That's how I move things around in the formation editor all the time. It does take a bit to getting used to and the first time I did it I thought all was lost, but it was not. [:)]
