I find myself need to adjust these fairly often and that requires a lot of clicks: left click on the building to open its details ctrl+left click to adjust the number of soldiers click to adjust heroes/rookies preference right click to close the window It would be nice to have a way to adjust these settings without opening the window for the military building. Maybe something like ctrl+click automatically toggles the heroes/rookies preference and ctrl+shift+click switches between maximum and minimum soldiers. Or just hovering and pressing something like A or Z for these would be useful. Edited: 2024-10-01, 07:46 Top Quote

But i would prefer CTRL+SHIFT+leftclick to make both: Set to max/min amount of soldiers plus set hero/rookie. I think this would be more consistent with other CTRL+SHIFT shortcuts. Example: open Empire tower window (defaults to garrison 5 soldiers and prefer heroes) CTRL+SHIFT+leftclick on the button to remove soldiers will set amount of soldiers to one and preference to rookies CTRL+SHIFT+leftclick on the button to increase the amount of soldiers will set amount of soldiers to 5 and preference to heroes This way the old default shortcuts will stay and no one has to get used to the new shortcut. A right click to close the window isn't really an issue, imho. Fight simulator for Widelands: https://wide-fighter.netlify.app/ Top Quote
