Default Re: Why Not Digitial Distribution?

Tim Brooks: We live like 10 miles from one another, can I buy you a beer sometime?

On a marginally related note, if someone were to compile User Interface improvements would there be any chance of seeing them get considered? Three examples off the top of my head:

1) Commanders should be able to dump all their gems into a lab without using hotkeys or clicking 30 times.
2) Item Transfer Screen: Laboratory should be at the top of the list instead of the bottom. (Requested several times I think)
3) Nation Overview (F1): Cannot sort anything on this screen. Ideal improvement would be for the top row with the column titles to be "locked" and persist when you scroll up and down, and clicking on the title of a column would sort by that column, first, ascending then descending.

Someone also suggested player scores persisting on the score graphs. Very good suggestion. I'm sure every player has 1 or 2 "nitpicks" about the interface that when put together would really serve to improve the game on a significant level. But it's kind of a wasted effort if the current interface is set in stone.

It's Illwinter's choice what they implement, but the chance of them implementing what you want is bigger if they know what you want. If there was a good list, with all the points in the first post and everything written well AND CATEGORIZED by importance, it would be very useful for Johan. Without categorizing, it's just a wishlist thread, which can offer hints but doesn't help in getting the important stuff before "important". Telling the difference between those two is quite hard, though. As an example, the score graphs persisting is trivial for some (who disable scoregraphs), and very important for others (who "score" themselves against other nations).
