1) The 'J' short-cut displaying AI Team numbers on deployed units is very useful. Please expand the numbers displayed to 99.

2) Currently you can only delete the bottom AI Team from the list. Please add the possibility to delete AI Teams anywhere in the list

Thanks

Good ideas!

This function could also be useful in the faction screen.

You can already do that. Select a faction in the middle of the list and hit the minus-sign (if this is what you meant).

Erik is talking about the AI tasks under the AI Setup tab. The first 16 are set in stone and can't really be removed, but only the last added one can be removed.
It remembers me of the continous piling up of trigger numbers: no matter how many you have already deleted, it still counts on in the hundreds. Reusing or reordering deleted numbers seems out of question in this game.

Showing AI Teams with "J" is useful, but how do you change back to strength-view? I've mashed around the keyboard with no luck. Only reloading helps.

Ooops.
Yes, it's what I meant, and you're right, it's already doable. Sorry, then.

You can do that if you switch to an editor function that "refreshes" the units graphics. Like other/supply or other/location names.

Couple thangs to consider:

• I'd like ability to locate units from the units list. Find the unit on the units list, click it, and your cursor goes to the highlighted unit location.

• Ability to somehow locate all units on an AI Team. Maybe an option to show only that AI team on the map? or filter the units list (if you can navigate to units there per first bullet)

• here is a big one - ability to toggle location names on and off while in the troop view. Painful to find a location and then have it go away when you click to get a unit to place there.

Locating units from the unit list is already in the game itself, so should be easy to implement.

You can use j key to display team numbers on-map, but this only goes to 20 (I think).
An ability to filter the unit list and on-map units would be very nice.

Re-ordering the unit list. After much editing it may get pretty jumbled.

I wish the location names on/off option would work wether there was a flag in the location or not. That is, some times I'd like to be able to see location names on-map at all times. Flags should only be used for objectives or deployment towns.

The ability to remove a transport without recreating the unit from scratch.
