| Summary | 0024236: Player vs AI attack notification | ||||
| Description | It makes sense for battles on player planets to appear on the GUI. However, battles on AI or neutral planets also appear, and it shows the player as the defender (which is strange if I, the player, am "defending" an AI planet). I know that these are supposed to show up along with attacks on player planets, but I have little to distinguish them apart unless I click on them. That is, unless I have something valuable such as a GCA or a major data center. I would like there to be an indicator for whose planet the battle is occurring (whether AI, the player, or neutral). That way I would know whether I'm having trouble on one of my planets or if I'm having trouble on an AI planet (especially if I don't have a beachhead on the planet). | ||||

I agree the icons really need to be different between AI planets and Human-held planets (or planets for which the planet has spent AIP). When you beachhead a bunch of planets it becomes horribly cluttered. |

Thanks! * Previously, we only had a single "our planet is under attack" sort of notification. It had two variants, one for our home planets and one for not-our-home-planet. ** For a long time, we have also been using it to note when "our" planet is being attacked if the planet was a beachhead where we had a lot of turrets. In the most recent build, we expanded that to include any planet we or our human-player allies are fighting on, but that had the side effect of making it so that it gave very confusing notifications about "us defending our planets" in enemy territory. ** Now we have a whole new set of text, and new icon, for notifications of us attacking an enemy or neutral planet, whether that's a beachhead or otherwise. These show up under the informational level of severity, so right at the bottom. *** These show the lists of allied attackers, and the list of enemy defenders. They also show any interesting capturables on that planet, same as on our own planets we were showing infrastructure. |
