add the movement panel to minimised UI

[tarloch]

i love the way the min UI looks especially with the unit cards all in a line making groups alot easier to see and the radar back up in the top corner.
however for some unknown reason i am finding the keys to rotate units facings etc are not working, so would like to see an option to have the semi-circle of arrows we use to tweak units movements represented in the minimum UI in some way

anyone else agree? or indeed does their hotkeys work when the UI is minimised?

yeah i noticed the unit control hotkeys dont work in the minimised UI when i was playing the demo way back when. i thought maybe it'd be changed in the full game but i guess not.

it is a pain because it means often i have to switch between minimised UI and standard UI just to use those keys, which also means i have to regroup or my men (i.e. ctrl + 1 etc.)

i'm no expert but couldnt some talented modders change this? i hope so...

[tarloch]

yes i noticed when you swap back and forth you lose your groups aswell , lets indeed hope that this also bugs some of the modders so that they fix it aswell or maybe CA retify this is a patch. i wont hold my breath on that one as i sure that would be way way down their "to do" list

Agreed and hopefully they`ll fix it so the keys DO work in minimised mode. They are essential for this kind of war.

i only started using min UI lastnite when playing around with movie maker and fraps now i just realised that formations hotkeys dont work either!!..

wtf are CA playing at? bugs are bugs but releasing a game were half the keys in the controls options panel dont work really is taking the piss and unacceptable (rant over)

Yes, I've switched to full UI in Empire for this reason alone.

Yea I use to play with minimized UI in the previous games as I got to see more of the battlefield. I would prefer it in this to but I need those keys to fine tune my line and such.
