Confirmation to use spell upgrade IMPLEMENTED

Post by AgentA »

I think we need a confirmation to use spell upgrades after clicking them. This is to avoid using a spell upgrade unintentionally after you misclick on your phone because it almost fell on your face. Whatever the reason is, I think a confirmation prompt is reasonable.

Or maybe make a new button to show the spell upgrades?
Instead of having many buttons above "click me to cast thy spell whether you like it or not", we can have a button that behaves similar to 3 dots button at the top-left corner of screen to show the spells the user can use by clicking their icons, it can also show a little number at top-right corner of each spell icon to indicate the remaining quantity of a spell.

After the first times it fell on my face I developed those reflexes to catch my phone before it hits my face.

The same. But most often i touch something I shouldn't have in the process.

Completely agree - I've lost few spell upgrades accidentally.

also what kind of confirmation?

Regeneration, Clone, Strenghten, Kill etc.
Imho. Simple dialog yesno would suffice (or to be more clear: "Use <spellname> on <unitname>?" confirm/cancel).
Or hide them behind additional button, like AgentA proposed.

Nice cat reflexes.

confirmation for powers usage IMPLEMENTED

Post by Dahdee »

I would like to respectfully request the developers add a confirmation function for the usage of powers. It is currently very easy to "fat finger" a unit at the top of the screen and accidentally activate a power instead. Thank you for considering this option.

You mean the spells in game?
Yes, I agree. Sometimes, I accidentally click on them and use them.
