I assume you mean NE NW SE SW, which nets a new positioning headache. The current set is tactically adequate, particularly with the "M" key for precise movement.

I actually meant the mouse rotation controls, which are difficult to align up, down, left, and right; I foolishly assumed the mouse wheel rotation was relative to the current angle of the ship and had the same problem.

[GoodMorning]

I have no issue. I was seeking to clarify, but no matter.

[Xalos]

An option to have clicking the middle mouse button pause the game.

Bring incomplete Omni movement control in line with ships - ie the ability to select omnis which have not yet been completely built and select a destination for them.  When construction is complete, they are then free to move - same as ships now.

Can we have a lore guide?  I recognise Varro and Joven from CW2:A, but what's the House Abraxis?  What is Redacted Space?!

When the game starts I would prefer to be able to click on the picture instead of having to go to the enter button at the bottom to select.

[GoodMorning]

Chwooly, that might interfere with the click/drag method of moving the carousel. Good thought, though.

When dialogue is 'typing', it would be nice if clicking next brought up all of the text instantly - then a further click advanced the dialogue.

I heard Virgil say that he was planning to do something like that.

[GoodMorning]

I can but support it. I lost tactical information a few times when I began, because I expected this. Usually I could go back, to complete text, but not on the last panel.

An opportunity to view all conversations yet shown would be good.

Do we get a PRPL conversation API?

"ConversationName" ShowConversation. That lets you use the inbuilt conversation editor for ease of use. If you need dynamically generated conversations for some reason, I seem to recall AddConversationMessage and friends in a changelog somewhere, but how exactly they work I haven't yet figured out.

[GoodMorning]

AddConversationMessage and friends

...was what I meant.

Apr 6, 2016: Added to PRPL: SHOWCONVERSATION, CLOSECONVERSATION, ADDCONVERSATIONMESSAGE, CLEARCONVERSATION, DESTROYCONVERSATION,

[GoodMorning]

Thanks. I can only get to the beta changelog thread, so I am in ignorance of the PRPL additions.
