I am also thinking about loading a save games where mini map is actually somewhere else and not centered on unit that is now in play. It is especially important in grosse scenarios like FiTE. Hehehe, FiTE is most popular. I've also added some zoom levels,. You should be able ot zoom out, put your mouse on a unit, and zoom back in.

I'd imagine he'd like the mini-map view to change so that not only is the 'black-box', which represents the view area 'centred', but also the mini-map itself being centred. Right now, you could be looking at the Brits in the UK (in EA) and then switch to the Soviets over in the USSR and you're 'black-box' will be out of the view of the mini-map.

Two diffrent requests, really: A) When switching between units, it would be nice if not only the 'black-box', which indicates the viewing area, but also the entire mini-map jumped to the location of the new unit. B) When right-clicking on the mini-map, it would be nice if not only the 'black-box' centred, but also the entire mini-map. Both of these methods would prevent the viewing area from being 'off' of the mini-map's displayed area.

I'm not very patient. B) It does that on mine. I must have fixed it in the upcoming patch or something.[sm=00000030.gif]

I'm not very patient. Bummer. Speaking of slowness, does your processor go up to 100% when clicking through units in a stack? Did anything happen with the last patch to make it slower, as I don't remember it being slow at all previously. I could be wrong and maybe something just happened to my machine... I'm running a 2.1Ghz with 1 Gig RAM machine. quote: B) It does that on mine. I must have fixed it in the upcoming patch or something.[sm=00000030.gif] You know, I had a hunch. [:D]

He said he had a hunch - past tense. I'm wondering what his current problem is.

SMK-at-work -> RE: TOAD Tuesday redux (8/2/2007 4:12:47 AM)
Are we gonna get more exclusion zones, seperate sea transport values for seperate seas, a higher unit limit?? pretty please....huh, huh??[:)]

A) Sometimes its useful when the minimap stays,especially when you want air-units on one side of a large map attacking airfields on the other side. That way you can immediately get to the airifield after the main map has swithced to the air-unit's location. Or when you have a bunch of ships/amphibious units starting on a really long trip, or airtransported units or....
