Multiple Unit Selection
Posted: Wed May 05, 2021 9:37 pm
Hi
I really like the game but there is something I think could make it exponentially better.
I'm not sure if this is the intended play style, but I micromanage the game and decide myself which unit attacks which target and when. I give different weapons loadouts to different units in specific areas, for instance. Essentially a slow and strategic game style. Sometimes it can get a bit tedious to select units, missile silos for example, one by one in order to select which types of missiles they hold. The same applies when creating carrier strike groups and selecting their weapons configuration or the ship's specific options such as whether they have aircraft patrol on or off.
Having an RTS style multiple selection drag box would make it easy to select multiple units and apply a weapon's configuration to all units in the selection. The game's experience would be overall more streamlined and efficient.
I hope you implement this mechanic to game.
