nearly forgot Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

i just had to ask about this!
could you please put the Healthbars infront of units (in the layering sense). when fighting from certain angles you cant see one of the units healthbars! I know it has no effect on the out come, i'd just like to see how it went!
and so i can moan when i chip off 4 healthpoints taking no hits my self, and then the enemy kills my unit!

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

hmm, this can be annoying at times. But since it doesn't change annything on the outcome of the battle, I don't think this will ever change.

It should be tested, but I tend to say as Vampire... When we're battling, we're not looking at the little things around the battle, we're really concentrated on the battle.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

HDVamp has a point. When battles happen and you don't clearly see what one of the unit's health is you serioulsy starting soiling your pants. I find the figthing (with animations on) a good break between all the building and moving. It's like a little movie, and not being able to follow one side of the story line sucks.

As you say, it doesn't happen very often, but it does happen. I can't imagine how it could be too had to change this, (but then, I am nt a master programmer)

Yes, I find this most annoying also. Sign me up for the "More Visible Battle Healthbars" proponents!
