Report history
Could you clarify what you mean by "repeated animations and flashing frames"?
Cheers!
Also when you are about to select what to build/how to crusade the frames around the options are flashing, I would prefer an option to just have a solid frame.
Can I confirm - this is only when you're hovering over the possible action during the "choose action" step, isn't it?
Once you've selected Build, there should no longer be any animation. Instead you should be seeing a radial menu, and as you hover over each menu item then it shows purely that building, but shouldn't show any if you are sitting on the Build action and aren't hovering anywhere.
Is that not the experience you're having?
Thanks for the clarification of "flashing" - I understand what you're referring to now.
The animation is a way of showing all options at a quick glance whilst deciding which option to take (so that players have all of the information they need to decide if a Build option might be a good choice), but you can end it by choosing the Build action (which you could always cancel out of if you change your mind)?
As a heads up, if anyone ever has any suggestions for alternate ways of communicating (say) "here are the 5 building options you could build" with a glance visually, I'd be more than happy to hear. The switching between buildings is a "best/worse" way I've been able to come up with thus far, but I'm aware that it's the only part of what I call the "forecasting" display that does that, so I'd be more than happy for countersuggestions..
