Default Re: Next Turn

If I was to put a dialogue box there, then the immediate reply from gamers would be "and what about this Y/N question in the map editor, this numeric input there" - ie they would want a complete redesign of the user interface. Which simply is not going to happen. This is an MSDOS game originally, and so based on keyboard input.

The Y/N question was as I recall, specifically added by end-user request back in the DOS days, as the button had no such thing, and it was too easy to mis-click it and hence end turn when you did not intend to do so.

And to the original poster - please do not put up exactly the same question in both the WW2 and MBT forums since it means we have to answer the same sort of queries twice over to 2 separate end user groups. Should anyone do this again in the future - one of the duplicated questions will be deleted from one of the fora.
