Possibility for lower left HUD to stop automatically switching view?

Post by mrgenie »

I'd like to keep it on LAND when I'm moving around units so I can
instantly verify the Supply.

But every time I select a unit it switches automatically to DEFENSE view

Is there a possibility to stop this behavior?

It is not possible to change that, although you have alternatives for supply. There is the filter, hotkey <S>, and when units are selected and you mouse over any developed hex (not empty) you do see supply in the tooltip

I always play with the supplies on.. never noticed there's an actual supply percentage there in the tooltip :lol:

Thanks for pointing this out to me.. might visit an ophthalmologist |O |O |O

If it helps, I don't think it was always there. Added during one of the updates a couple years ago, but we are creatures of habit. Initial impressions/expectations can heavily affect our actions :)

Oh! That's true! my apologies, it was a mod before it was added to the game, I had forgotten that. The community has been a big influence on our design decisions over the years.
