1. have a thin border around the screen, 1/8th inch or so, that you can use to scroll the screen around as opposed to using buttons or the map view (I have a clie nx70 and the buttons are hidden most of the time and the map view moves jerky).
2. dedicated a small portion of the lower screen to some commands like attack, move, patrol. case in point, I lost a whole squadron when they walked right past some hostiles instead of attacking any enemies that they passed. I do like them not attacking buildings on their own, though. keeps them out of trouble. |

Yeah, why is it that those soldiers don't defend themselves when being shot at? Are they wimps or something? |

They attack...not when you tell them to go somewhere though (they only attack when not moving). _________________ Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

But until they reach their desination, they march right along, taking every bullet like a badge of honer. also, as i sink into my nightly stupor,a scenario for enhancement 1 comes to mind. in m8:hostile take over, you're trying so hard to sneak home-slice around but then he up-and pops a cap in a tank. so now you're on the run, turning around every now and then to shot it while your health recovers. i am an avid starcraft fan and my natural instinct is to push the edge of the screen...but it doesn't work - so i tap the map...damn moved to far. meanwhile homey's takin' hits and soon he dead. |

Always keep your fingers on the keys...But yes, it would be nice to be able to scroll around (with the stylus). _________________ Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Or merely the option to choose which method works best for you. I would hate for them to change it when I have finally gotten used to the way it works now. _________________ Give a person a fish, and they'll eat for a day. Teach a person to use the Internet, and they'll leave you alone for weeks. |
