There was a big outcry when I reduced the available info on enemy armour before, so I chose to give more info. These armour blocks won't work as health bars, although I could replace them with non-rounded rectangular shapes and make them into health bars if that's better? yes, it's much easier to see how you're doing armor-wise at a glance with the health bars. the slight color change and armor number isn't enough, especially in a fast battle. showing the actual armor numbers on enemies is a bad idea IMO, as it leads to beancounting which is generally something that seems to be actively downplayed here. damage may already be done, though... other obvious bugs/comments but i am sure they will get covered. ......................... vet combatL1 wv1,0,0 Posted Aug 29, 2008, 11:00 pm

Ivan Kerensky Les Loups Gris Autodueller Civs Faction Group: Members Posts: 419 Joined: Mar 1, 2008 I like the new way the armor is depicted. I vote not to change them. But pls reduce the scale a bit... 25% less would be nice for the manage window. ......................... vet wv Posted Aug 29, 2008, 11:27 pm

While I like the new look of the rounded armour bars, I'm with 4saken on the actual functionality of the armour details. Perhaps detailed armour numbers could be something for a scout skill specialization, but generally, I'd too like to avoid beancounting and unrealistic insight into my enemies' behaviour and status. I suppose them newfangled pretty armour bars without numbers but with some sort of armour reduction feedback is too much to dream for ......................... vet marshal wv Posted Aug 30, 2008, 3:24 am

I'm fixing that. BTW you never could retract moves, you could simply turn your name from green/ready to red/not ready. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Aug 30, 2008, 1:30 pm
