Handling Proposals are suggestions which want to improve the game handling, especially the user interface. Please discuss these proposals at Talk:Handling Proposals.

Vehicle upgrade feature

User interface changes

  • In addition to the recycle button in vehicle menu, an upgrade button should be added.
  • In the construction menu a perm select option should be added, so that you can permanently select one of the designs on list as "upgrade goal".

Functional changes

The present way of playing will not be changed. Users who do not know the new feature will not be irritated.

The benefits of this new upgrade feature:

  • Once you have developed a new body, traction or weapon, you can upgrade all attack vehicles using only a few clicks.
  • The rank of a vehicle will be transferred to the new design and not be given to a simultaneously produced cyborg by mistake.

This idea comes from some other games, e.g. SSI's Panzer General, Peoples General, Sid Meyer's Civilization.

To prevent the way of speeding up factory production by producing a cheap vehicle and instantly upgrading it, the upgrade process should either cost time or be allowed not earlier than some minutes after production resp. last upgrade of this unit has been completed.

Upgrades must not be for free. You have to pay the energy of the new design for every upgraded unit. But at least half of the old units production cost shall be "recycled".

Zoom Range

To gain better overview, the zoom range should be widened.

Load/Save Unit Designs

The ability to store unit your favorite unit designs in order to speed up the game for more experienced players.
