Do you think the P,C and F buttons on the menu bar should be removed?

Poll about a minor interface change suggestion

Post by David »

Someone suggested that the P,C and F buttons on the menu bar (see the attached screenshot) should be removed, thus making the interface clearer, as currently it is already possible to bring up those reports by either using hotkeys or via the Information Center.

Do you agree with this suggestion?

honestly, i never use those buttons nor the zoom or goal button. i usually use the "i" button for information center at the bottom to get into all the reports. goal button is also on the bottom therefore could be removed outa the lefthand menu aswell

I never use those...I actually forgot they were there....On that menu I normally only use the Speed clock, Build Mode and Buy Land. Everything else I get there either by the bottom or via the $ inside of firms.

keep in mind that we are experienced players if you want to attract new players you have to keep the game user friendly. if you want to replace them and turn them into 1 button such as HEAD QUARTERS, or YOUR OFFICE, that would be good!

personally I don't use them, I get to all the options clicking the stock market button

I never look at the goals menu either - it just pops up when you complete it anyway. (I also find the main goal completed do you want to end the game window that appears kinda useless)

I don't use the zoom buttons either, mouse wheel is just more convenient for that.

I never buy land its just to fiddly, I would like the various options to be just replaced by one click and drag option to buy however many squares you want, with text at the cursor showing the total cost.

I would also like an option in the build menu so it defaults to the company i choose - so I can build multiple different buildings for one subsidiary without having to select them in the list each time I build something.

Would it be possible to add a new button in their place that goes directly to the manufacturer guide? I typically always use the stock market button to get to that screen.

You may use F1 key to access the Manufacturer's Guide as well.
