A Last Feild visited on Map Jump Toggle
« on: January 24, 2013, 04:01:11 AM »
With the size of some of our maps later at night often the action you follow at 2-3 bases is at extream ends of your country boundries. Tonight I was following three fights and pulling up the map and dragging the giant thing around to look at the status back at the other two to see if I wanted to hop back from time to time. I know you can minimise the map and look that way.

My thought was how easy it would be if the clipboard like with your browser rememberd the last 2-4 feilds you visited. Then you could click on a back button and the map would change focus centering back to each feild in sequence without you having to change the map resolution.

Kind of picayune at face value. But, I was hopping from a GV base where I was using a 17lb to hold off tanks about every 5-10 minutes, upping to furball, jumping back to the GV base, watching the progress of a fight a few squad mates were taking part in. Then keeping an eye on a feild thinking it was a good candidate for a NOE quick take. It occured to me about 2 hours into watching those feilds how nice a back butten would have been on the map. I'm probably being lazy and think everything should work like a WEB browser.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.
