Title: ENY – Don't Make Me Guess
Post by: MachNix on April 18, 2006, 12:43:32 PM

My objective is to see what weapon systems (planes and vehicles) are available in the Hanger.  The other night we had a lot of people jumping to the "winning" side, which kept driving up the ENY value.  I would pick a plane, click to launch, and get the message that couldn't fly a plane with an ENY less than x.  I would then go through the list to find a plane with an ENY greater then x, click to launch, and get the message that I now needed a plane greater then y.  Okay, back to the list, click to launch, and now the ENY was at z.  I don't mind the ENY limiter but I don't want to have to guess what it is.  What I would like to see is either:

1.  A text area inside the hanger that displays the current ENY value so I can compare the item's value to the displayed value.

or

2.  Color-code the list to separate items available (the black-text items) from those that are ENY limited.  For example, turn the items that are ENY limited to blue.

The displayed ENY value and/or the item's color-coding would update when the ENY value gets recalculated.

I wouldn't mind having ENY-disabled planes be greyed out or redded out or something. Perhaps pick a new color to denote ENY limited? How's about orange/yellow (warning colors)?

When in doubt, roll the C.205, don't think I've ever seen it unable to fly.

Hit me flying for knights for the first time in 6 months.
Couldn't fly the nik or the la5. Ended up taking up the F4u-1d and had a blast!

Consider checking the ENY on map....

ESC, then right click map, scroll to (...shoot, what was that called again....) "countries" I think. It'll bring up a pane with the current ENY for each country. Click close, and you have your hangar list back.



BTW, I think ENY stands for "enemy" but I'm not sure.
