I posted your ideas on github a while ago, this reminded me to bump the thread. The storage idea in particular is really good (once I realised what you were saying ).

I presonally ran out of ideas, but I'd love to hear more suggestions. A lot of the mods people have been suggesting for vanilla FAF, like map reclaim icons (showing the amount it is worth) and such have been something I want soooooo bad.

but feel free to suggest I'm always interested to hear about ways (ideas or concrete) to make FAF gameplay even better.

that's because tatsu is a troll and also doesn't know how to count apparently.

Yeah, happens too often for me as well. Submitted a fix now:

Not only that, I gave a supporting t1 fac a upgrade to go T2 HQ. When it was done, it could not build anything T2.

Also on Full share, often some naval facs are bugged and can only build lower tech.

It makes it slightly easier in that you just have to put your mouse over the mex you want to surround, and not to one of the sides, but it doesn't snap to position like it does if you're just building one mex.

This is something I have wanted for a while now.

So, you can save a screen position using Shift-Tab and when you press Tab you can cycle through all of them. But you can only cycle through them.

Can we have it so that you bind a screen position to a hotkey? That you press and it jumps to that position?
I would find that useful.I use Hotbuild, so it would go well with that for me

Or click assist first then start the upgrade.

ye but that's the thing.

it's discontinuous with the logic of the game :
1.) it works if you do it before
2.) it works if you do it after

but not during.

this list is to polish the game into a near-perfect state. yes, Im a bit OCD.
