ORIGINAL: mikmyk Stay tuned on this. We've been thinking about the presentation/content side a lot lately so some sort of video integration probably makes sense. Mike It might. But every cycle a developer spends adding eye candy is a cycle lost for the core simulation issues that make this product so wonderful. Regards, Feltan +1 I'm assuming that there is more than just one programmer involved? If so, I would think that the makers and bakers of Command deserve a little more respect than this, in that I'm pretty sure that they could do both without taking away from the other...Granted, it might take a bit longer for one or the other thing, but then but most good addons do. But since we are wanting more wonderful without a video/picture option, and reaching for making a point on the pro's and con's of eye candy versus a "cycle" lost (as you put it) for real issues not being fixed, how about we fix most of the issues you're concerned about, and then add the "optional" eye candy? I don't see a problem then. Do you? [8D] In fact, what specific things are so broken in game for you, that we don't dare peel off the programmers for more options at this time? [:D] You might want to investigate the Ongoing Thread on Feature Requests: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=3437496 In the world of software development, that ongoing list would be a big investment of time -- and I think that's what folks are saying they would prefer. And yes, it really is simple economics, if labor hours are budgeted for eye candy they aren't available for something else -- it is a zero sum game. You would also probably like to know that the development team here is interested and highly responsive to requests, so a little back-and-forth at a respectful level isn't something they shy away from.
