There goes one of my tactics...

It's a good thing though as I always felt it was an rather an exploit than anything.

I wish KF would use the universal NATO NTDS map symbols. Its strange not using them.

Any update on the helm panel addition?

Seems to be referenced and shown off in screenshots but have not heard anything about it since.

Im sure there are customers who bought the game based on that feature coming that would like just a little update at least as to where we are with that and how its going to be implemented.

Thanks appreciate it.

That is a bigger feature that requires integration with the current navigation system and damage control. It will also require new key binds and a lot of testing.

So the plan is get to it soon and we want to time as many edits to options/keybinds in the one release to try and minimise disruption to player's options and of course mods.

Once we commit to the helm stuff it will put bug fixes on hold for a while and we want go get the campaigns stable and track down the last of the major bugs (including AI ones) first.

Thank you KG! It's so nice to know you are working hard on this great game. The UI is going to be amazing, it will put the game in legendary status.

Really looking forward to this when completed.

Will we be able to order turns for specific speed with the new helm control?

If you mean on the campaign map, then send me a link of what the symbols look like and I will mod them in for you.

I already did that (except for plane symbols, because in the game they are rotated).

I've included them in the mod I'm currently working on.

This is how it looks:




Here's the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5...WowYldoTlZsY1U
If you just want the icons use only this folder: override\campaign\images\sprites

And if you're interested in other things I changed, here's the thread:
