Default Re: Poll: Should Dom3 allow automatic site search

I would also agree that there should be some sort of command that would eliminate the need for separate commands on separate turns. I can't even begin to count the number of times I've overlooked a "search" and lost valuable time having to issue the command the following turn.

What SC says
I don't need the game to play instead of the player, but reasonable default behavior for idle units and ability to "script" search routes (or even better : paths and actions, à la Stars!) would be very nice.

I think searching should still be a voluntary action, but it should be much simpler and effective. I would personally suggest that any commander should be able to search. Special site could be of three or four categories(holy, magic, civilian and military for example) and if searched by the right class (priest, mage, soldier or civilian), all sites of the matching category would be found. Some commanders or spells could be able to find more than one kind of sites.

The only thing which should change with magic site searching is... computer opponents more actively searching for magic sites.
