Improve Hotkeys

wc_sumpton

What I think would be a nice hotkey is the ability to cycle through the territories that have been moved into while the BC was open. That way you could assess each battle prior to pressing 'Done' on the 'Action' screen.

Cheers...

@wc_sumpton I would go further and add a hotkey to calculate all pending battles and display win % as a green - yellow - red (% dependent) number over the territories.

@alkexr

It would be a very cool to do all combat moves and see generic win % for each attack, over each territory. Either with a hotkey or automatic.

Well, some good ideas here though I mostly wanted to focus on hotkeys for existing functionality first. Updating the first post to show what I'll look to add in the short-term vs some longer term ideas.

Updated short-term list:

Proposal

Remove WASD as this already conflicts with Ctrl+S and I don't think is used much
Add Ctrl+hotkey for each tab panel
-- Ctrl+A - Actions
-- Ctrl+P - Stats (rename to Players)
-- Ctrl+R - Economy (rename to Resources)
-- Ctrl+O - Objectives
-- Ctrl+N - Notes
-- Ctrl+T - Territory
Add Ctrl+(-/+) to zoom out/in
Ctrl+E - Toggle edit mode
Ctrl+H - Toggle history mode
Ctrl+P - Toggle show politics panel
Ctrl+L - Toggle unit help list

@redrum

Add Ctrl+(-/+) to zoom out/in - In best case this one is very hard to do with left hand if at all. I suggest Ctrl+Z (-) / Ctrl+X (+).

Ctrl+T is not useful for left hand. Can we make it Ctrl+Q?

Ctrl+C - toggle all existing panes on/off seems very useful.

Having coded to letters is nice, but if they aren't helpful, I would skip letter coding and go for usefulness.

Or ability to customize from default hotkeys would be great.
