| Summary | 0023015: Improve Intel display | ||||
| Description | The existing intel pane is a pain to navigate, especially when you have to scroll through a list of 100 or more items. It takes considerably more time and effort than it should to do things like "find all data centers I can reach". My ideal intel display would be the one from Starsector, which uses a tag filter system. See this dev blog post (particularly screenshots 3-5): http://fractalsoftworks.com/2018/05/07/revisiting-the-intel-ui/ In AIW2, this would make it easy to e.g. have a map showing all the planets with AIP reducers/golems/capturables at once. The current GUI pane could be modified to approximate this functionality by introducing the following features: - Buttons to expand/collapse all categories - Allow selecting multiple intel items at once, thereby highlighting all their planets on the galaxy map - New options to sort the order of intel items, beyond the current priority-then-defense-estimate (e.g. alphabetical sort would serve to put items involving the same type of unit together) | ||||
