Other player move zone and predictions

Post by Rudankort »

So, some players did not like the new feature in 1.1.20 to display move zones and combat predictions for units belonging to other players. As promised, we will make this new functionality an option. But while working on it, we stumbled upon an interesting question. So ok, we can turn off showing move zone and prediction for enemy units. But what about the allies? Shall we still show extra markers for them, or should they be affected by the same option?

Just make it all on/off optional, so diehard fans can turn off everything.

I like this feature. It's very useful addition to the game.
Panzer Corps 2 is the most ahistorical game in the history of WW2 games

Great feature, thanks for implementing it! I love when a game displays ALL the rules (I also turn off the randomness of the fight).

I would suggest to make everything an option:
- see enemy player moves and predictions ON/OFF
- see allied player moves and predictions ON/OFF

I greatly enjoy the fully customizable approach new features in PzC2 are taking these days and would like to see it continue with the option to freely modify the predictions/zones. For allies this visibility would be welcome as it helps distribute support fire and predict their moves, but of course if might impact multiplayer in some ways or just not sit well with some players, so that added flexibility would be welcome. It means extra development time, but is the optimal way to go.
