GM: Defense Order Attack Warning Option

Postby Chazar » Wed Jun 12, 2013 10:27 pm

Another Gold Member Feature Request:
An option to have a warning message displayed whenever you are about to attack while the current stack order being shown is the defensive fight order.

It is kinda inconvenient if Scouts, Crows and HeavyInfantry charges the enemy before my Cavalry does. Happens all the time to me. :oops: Yeah, I know, I should've learned it after burning my fingers for a couple of times. Now, gold member features are all about convenience, aren't they? Remaining ignorant without getting hurt would be convenient for me. :lol:

Did not work

The WarCup13 games are v 0.92, aren't they?

It did not work: Just a few minues ago, I accidentally attacked with defense order displayed, and my heart stopped when the battle display popped up with an unexpected order... :shock: ...I got lucky in that instance... 8-)

Anyway, so the warning does not seem to work yet. :(

It was a battle on water against neutral forces on a money site.

There is a setting for gold members "show attack warnings". Is that set to on? Might not be the best description

Well, it displays a black tick mark within the game under settings. However, I did not enable it myself, it was set by default, but I interpret it as "on" when the black tick mark is shown.

I never play with my defense order on. I use it to check and always back on attack mode, and one time when I am about to finish the turn to check is anything abnormal.

Ah, my bad. It only worked if you "clicked"...
Should work for clicking the move-button as well as the shortkey "m" now.
Please try it somewhere so you see it works, and let me know :-)

Thanks for the fix! I tested it explicitly today and it works fine now. Good catch that you realized I was using the m-key instead of clicking, I ought to have reported that. :)

One minor glitch though: the warning also appears if I move my own units onto a temple that already holds my own units.

Another minor glitch: moving into an razed city (unoccupied) also triggered the warning.
