Proposed changes/improvements in the game editors

[P.Ako]

For the Scenario editor
Why i have to duplicate a regiment in the OOB editor just to have two strategic decisions?

You don't - clearly you are missing something WRT this function.

I think you have the MC Series games and if you consult those Scn you will see there is no need for duplication.

You create the Strategy and the operations inside. Go inside the first operation and place a unit.

Go into the second operation ad you can place the same units.

Yes i have the MC titles (except Fulda Gap and North German Plains which are integrated into Danube and only Budapest on PzC.
Ok, my fault i'll try it.

As for the Flag thing - I don't see the point. The flag is something used only for visual purposes in the OOB editor and there is one flag per country.

I thought about this with the idea of not having to use different folders for every army branches. Let's say that for example i want the Korean Marines to have their own counters, unitbox and flag. The only way to make it is assigning a folder for them, folder that could have been used for any other nation. That's why that with the proposed system you could save a lot of folders and having also separate army branches, "regular" army, paratroopers and Marines all of them in the same folder.
It's just reduced in the end to some customization of some units.

As for assigning a nation to a side, I just don't see the game where this is something that is necessary. If it was, then we would have two Nations, one per side. For example I think we have FRENCH on the Allies and Vichy French on the Axis because we added a couple of Vichy Units in Moscow.

Yes you're right about it however the fact that you could easily change the sides of the nations is something that i think would be interesting when you want to mod. However i admit that it is a bit pointless and secondary in the best of the cases.

Well at least i think that the hotkeys petition is something that's really needed!

EDIT: It's not about the editors, but of the game engine... would it be to hard to make engineers to lie obstacles? not mines, just obstacles.
