just a thought to make the use of the weapon switch radial/squad orders easier to use.
currently when using mouse and keyboard and trying to get the weapon switch radial/squad orders to work is at best a
tedious affair of press the middle mouse button and then move the mouse around to the point where you want it.
this does not work well at all as it is because many mice have a dead spot, or when using a laser mouse the system
does not see the mouse movement at all. In other cases it sees the mouse being moved but when you highlight say a nanohive to deploy it, it will not switch out to the nanohive.
what I suggest that would make it better would be..
1 ) press the middle mouse button and the radial pops up.
2 ) when the radial pops up it highlights the top item, the mercs weapon by default
3 ) it then gives the option to use the "-" and "+" buttons to move around the
radial like a clock.
4) could also allow to press a key with middle button pressed to open the squad orders page, it defaults to the top option and would also give the plus negative keys option to move selected item to the wanted action.
so in this case if I am say running logi, with a pen, hive and repair tool then all I have to do is press the middle mouse button.. tap plus or negative a few times and the selection indicator will spin around the radial in either clock wise or counter clock wise direction.
not sure how hard that would be to code into the game, but it would be much better then how it works now.

option B would be to make the maximum of 4 equipment slots quick key capable for the F1 to F4 keys
a very similar option to EVE. and that would be even easier to use for players.
just ideas. |

So, in other words, you are using a wireless mouse?
The same issue exists in Crysis and E.Y.E. if you are using a crappy mouse.
According to CCP philosophy, I'd say that you need to buy a better one.
Hotkeys are a nice idea, though.
I'd also like to get proper keyboard text chat in the game. The current communications system is ridiculously pointless. |
