ZeosPantera 0 Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) Arma has always been lacking in the ability to change where Hud elements appear and how you interact with them. I'd like to see AI controls completely customizable or at least scriptable so modders can provide the attention needed. This for example I made to showcase how I would like to see AI vehicles / platoons controlled via a stacked color coded system. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v504/F12Bwth2/Forums/AILayoutColors-1.jpg Running 22 AI scrolling across two screens you need to switch between with no way to re-order is hell on earth. Also the ability to adjust the size of the on-screen elements when using a low FOV. The compass for example is unusable at low numbers. If running a triplehead being able to dock all AI controls to one monitor and vehicle stats/ map/ gps and ammunition specs to the other would be preferable as that would leave the center monitor devoid of any distractions. I'd also like to be able to mouse-click on the AI controls. That would open it up to allow a touchscreen control of AI. Even a 7" touchscreen.

Primarch 10 Posted May 21, 2011 This would be cool. I think it is much better to handle the units the way they are in the 2nd picture, although it takes some room in the game so it obscures when there's the batallion amount of units. It should be tweakable just like in World in Conflict. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted May 21, 2011 As long as they keep the fading HUD. In fact, IMO they should decrease the delay before your HUD completely fades away when its not in use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicholas 5 Posted May 22, 2011 Want to add the possibility to output info to smart phones or netbooks. Things such as location, direction, chat. Ideally having no hud elements at all on the gaming machine. I would LOVE this, but I doubt seeing it happen. At least give the community the tools to do such a thing. I want to see an On/Off option for everything that is on the screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
