Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
Another annoying thing auto-Bowl of Blood targets water provinces while it is known there are no blood sites underwater.

Good line and sums up my thoughts on the rather useless mind hunt message.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
Please yes do this please. Please? At least with the remote searches I can look for something that's THERE, with mind hunts I have to look for something that's NOT there, it's a whole different level of pain.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
How are we to tell our Yadnif Goo's and our Gunther's and our Paralatus' apart? The elder gods saw fit to fill our tiny minds with confusion on these matters, so mote it be.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
The thing that really bugs me about the mind hunt message is that is doesn't tell you WHY the commander succumbed to the attack. Like: "Alice the Troll King was mentally attacked by the enemy mage. When the attack occurred, Alice was severely hungover; it also didn't help that Alice cheated his way through Mind Defense class at community college. Alice was killed by the attack. Alice is survived by his wife Fred the Troll Queen."

"...and son Frank the Trollman."
Yeah, the in-game message is severely lacking.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
Some of the messages can be improved by map builders. One of them (sorry I cant remember who) mentioned that he names his provinces with the number. So the province of Dragon Valley would be called Dragon Valley (231). That way some of the messages (assassin attempts?) dont force you to go to the F1 screen and scroll thru all the names to find it. You still use the F1 but can scroll down directly to the location to click.
I plan to remember that and remember to use it on my next mega large map.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
Also, if the number is included in the name, pressing # in strategic view will allow you to jump to a province with a spesific number.

Re: Death by Mind Hunt message
Wish granted It should be easier to figure out who died in the next patch.
