2 humble request's for next patch

wingtip59 · 03-06-2012, 08:53 PM

Having played now for 50 hours the two biggest pet peeves i have is

1) in the trade route setup screen if i have a route setup and decide to "remove" a particular item you cant... you either have to delete the whole station and start over or set it to a low level which is point less if your wanting a different item for that slot..

2) also within the trade route screens and other various screens like the data logs etc, or while trading, the game SHOULD PAUSE (except for multiplayer,which could be selectable), but it doesnt.. very annoying.

unless theres a hotkey for #1 that im unaware of i think these are fair requests.. im sure others have more requests that would be beneficial..

Just right click on the item you want to delete it will remove it.

1) Right-click it as dmdilks suggested.

2) Pausing in those situations has been done in another game (Tropico 4) and it is super annoying (!), these games are slow paced, not fast like classic RTS games, so pausing is counter-productive. If you really need to pause the game, just hit P on your keyboard.

once you hit p though you cant do anything as the menus all vanish... as for the right click, on mine right clicking does nothing so i can not remove items from the station unless i delete the entire station... is there some setting im missing in the options???

Go into option and look at interface and see what the right click menu is saying. I have mine set to off.

Isn't there also a small x on the good in the trade route screen? And as others said, you should be able to right click on the good you want to remove. It does the same in 1404 so there's no reason it shouldn't work..

its working now, it didnt work till i enabled the right click build menu... pretty lame that if you dont like the right click build menu that you can not delete an item in your trade route... luckily i like the option for right click building..

You should be able to do it without enabled the right-click menu.
