A general UI mod with many small enhancements.
- a key to quickly switch observer mode to the team that you are hovering over.
- econtrol ui. Helps you manage your economy. Description here: http://forums.faforever.com/viewtopic.p ... 83#p126783
- unit split feature. (first set the keybindings in options). select a large amount of units and then ctrl-alt-3 to split them into three even groups. It will try and make the units in each group near each other. But more importantly it will balance the groups so they contain similar amounts of high and large value units. Then repeatedly press V to cycle through them.
- unit lock feature. hit the lock key and the unit will be locked (a little padlock symbol is drawn). Now it will be filtered out of any selection that contains locked and unlocked units. Shift key overrides this behavior back to normal.
- adornments - tiny symbols are drawn over your units. There are symbols for idle, repeating, building, and assisted. Idle factories and factories assisted by other factories get larger icons. The idea to be able to see what your facs are doing without clicking on them. Early days yet, hopefully it will become more obvious. New adornments for upgrading buildings, loaded TML/nuke, submerged destroyers, etc.
- alerts - beeps and messages when upgrades finish
- a key to cancel current build queue except current item. works for factories and engineers.
- a key to undo build orders
- a key to select similar units
- Factories Repeat Always - disabled by default. Factories will repeat unless you assist another factory or manually turn it off (and even then it will be turned back on if you stop your factory). Factories start in repeat mode. Repeat mode is also turned on whenever the Stop command is issued. Repeat is turned OFF automatically when they assist another factory. These changes include more exotic factories like Quantum Gateways and experimentals that can produce units like the Fatboy. Warning: Rebind your repeat key first ... otherwise you will be turning your facs OFF repeat out of habit
- all units will start ground fire all the time
- improves zoom pop
- rearranges game ui panels to take up less space
- split screen enhancements ... for people who use multiple monitors, options to start in split screen mode and rearrange ui panels to be laid out better over two screens.
- alternative startup sequence changes the intial zoom in (thank tatsu who paid for this)
- all features toggleable one by one in the settings screen (click the spanner marked in the screenshot below). Hover over setting text for more info.
Thanks to many people. Credits in mod info.
, hope shortcut works as well, going test it...
