Methois Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Right now you can put you guys in any place on your chopper, but their battlefield numbers can't be modified that I've seen. As in the hot keys for selecting your units. 1-8 for starters etc. The reason I mention this, I run usually 2-3 seprate groups on the field. 2, 2-3 man rifleman squads and the third a heavy weapons/backup. If I could put my troups in order by numbers how I wanted then when I'm going through my troops it cycles through the members of each group instead of jumping all over the place as it is now.

Gauddlike Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I think I suggested a while back that the hotkey numbers should be based on the dropship position rather than linked to the soldiers. Then you drop your groups into the right spot and it works for you on the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusherven Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 How would that work if/when we have more than 10 soldiers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Methois Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Making it based on where you put them in the dropship would work. And as for how it works over 10.. how are they making it work now? we're not changing the system, just how they are assigned their number. Even if it goes over 10 you can use the mouse wheel to scroll to the next troop in order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gauddlike Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) It would work the same was as currently. 1 to 0 selects soldiers 1 to 10, shift1 to shift6 selects soldiers 11 to 16. I suppose the background could do with updating as well so the hotkey number was also on the square it was linked to. I would consider leaving the vehicles using the current hotkey (ctrl-1) though as they could sit over multiple hotkeys otherwise.
