We need something.

Got a great new idea for the game?

We need something.

Any Ideas. I'll make the thread.

You know how you kill everyone then you get an airstrike. But you have no cover and if you dont move within 5 seconds you get killed. WHAT SHOULD WE DO to stop this. POST YOUR IDEAS.

Well thats the whole point of this game - custom covers and fast moving between them.

Or you are talking about how dangerous airstrike is, or how hard it is to land it, and i have misunderstood you?
I am russian brony and warhammer-fag. I also have bad case of "Why doesn't this crap works like it suppoused to?". Deal with it.

look down, hold squat button, swap to shovel, hold right click.

Insta cover.

Personally I like to make a small area in my cover that I can quickly hide to use airstrikes, it is usually just a 3 high walled area with a roof (so you have to squat to go under) so I can quickly jump in there and airstrike.

Wasnt there some hotkey thing going around the forums awhile back that made it so you could hotkey some coords to a fkey or something? just use that.

Easy mode:
1. Download autohotkey from autohotkey.com
2. New script, paste in
q::
SendInput t/airstrike A1{enter}
return

3. Press q ingame
4. ???
5. Airstrikes on useless square A1.


Normal mode:
1. After doing easy mode, use window spy to find the coords of the top left and bottom right corners of the map
2. Create a very simple function to convert mouse position to coords in the A1 style, etc.
3. Detect when someone opens map (presses m, if they press m or esc close it), if they click on a square;
LButton::
if mapIsOpen
{
coords=getCoords()
SendInput t/airstrike %coords%{enter}
}
return

4. Enjoy your GUI airstrike launcher
5. ???
6. Win the game and be a hero of your team


Hard mode
1. Make Normal mode script
2. Add a yellow overlay outline around the square you are currently hovering over while the map is open
3. ???
4. Enjoy your marginally more advanced GUI!
