Default Re: Wishlish! (For the next patch)

I'm sure I am breaking like 20 internet laws by bumping an old thread but here goes...

One suggestion.

1) When setting the Spell Script for a commander, have a window or box at the top of the screen listing what you have in the script so far....short term memory loss is danm hard to cope with in a strategy game.

But otherwise absolutely loving this game and clicking "Host" in my dreams...

For spell casters, under the 'cast specific spell' combat script choice, place a box next to each spell that you can check/uncheck to assign the repetoire (sp) of spells your mage may cast.

Replace the 'hold and attack' command with 'hold and attack in X rounds'. Place an up and down arrow above/below the number so that you can adjust it.

in the preferences menu allow the abilty to have a tone(s) played when every person in a network game has played their turn.

Definately a map mod utility...that would be special

Make 'blood hunt' a one turn only action.

that's all i can think of atm

In order to be better than using a paint program and the included map editor the map utility would have to have nearly as much work as a full featured paint editor. That's not really feasible.

Why on earth would you want this? You certainly don't want to have to go through 20-40 scouts every turn and reassign blood hunt orders to them.

perhaps its because i haven't played a deep game, but i sometimes forget about it and have had the unrest get out of hand.

I would like to have the option to set the Magic Sites to AUtodetect or let ANY mage find all Sites.

(posted the idea in another thread earlier but this is a better place for it)

I wish the ai would never override my choices of spells to cast for the purpose of saving gems when I am storming an enemy castle. The reason is that a few enemy mages that my big army could easily kill on an open field, are much harder to kill when the castle walls block access. And defensive spells with a gem cost are sometimes very usefull against the arrows from the castle.

The gem-saving ai should still be active for the defender of the castle to prevent it from wasting gems on a single attacking scout.

I'd like

- a key to go to the next province in the editor. No "ctrl + something" but an easy accessible like space.
- More documentation or at least a list of all modding commands would be useful.
- monthly forging
- lab symbol on the map
- switchable (magic site) search numbers on the map
- info why scripted spells were not cast
