HELP - New reinforcement panel.

It's in sync with the new in-game panel (see viewtopic.php?f=50&t=6106)


Image

When you buy/offer units, they will go in a pool of "owned units", on the bottom-right on the interface.

You can drag&drop units into 5 groups. These 5 groups will appears in the same order in FA.
You can move units from a group to another group, or back to the pool of owned units.

It's up to you to manage your groups as you wish.

As long as you don't call the reinforcement in game, they are not consumed.

Also, you really don't need to build the beacon first anymore.

very nice!

the text in the top left of the panel says that you can have as many groups as you want, but the number is limited to 5, this might cause some confusion

will be interesting to see how it affects the game, calling the group you can need in this particular situation

By the way, if you click on a unit with "shift", you can add 5 units at a time.

Nice job!

One thingy: after you selectet units from the list on the left and bought them, they are still selectet in the list. Is this intended?

No it's not. Do you think it's a problem?

Not sure how to report this.

I just tried to order mantis as reinforcements. I clicked around on the user interface. I bought 10 mantis total, but it cost me around 1700 credits. I have the feeling I clicked on "buy" while the left menu was greyed out, and they cost credits but didn't end up anywhere.

Did you have that many credits?

Units are greyed when you max out credits. It's not a bug, it's there to avoid maxing out.

Yes I had 1858 credits. If you look at the log, you see me buying 5 mantis, then 10, then 10, then 10. 35 total. But I got only 10. total...
