Newcomer here, but I like what I have seen, and want to contribute what I can. First of all an small feature request... I'm not an expert on forum search, so my check didn't turn up anything similar.
In the geoscape view, Id like to have a small window with the current threat levels. Threats would be rated in e.g. 4 levels:
green - no aliens detected
yellow - ufo overflight
orange - ufo crash site
red - alien attack
Possibly a display that normaly is shaded green, when a threat appear it will have colored icons with the number of such threats, if you click on it it'll take you to the threat site. Lets you have full control of what the pesky b'tards are up to at the moment.
Reason for this is of course that I actually missed an attack one time, when the message got lost behind something like a transfer completed msg or something. No big deal, but I had to reload the save and try again. Guess it may have lowered my score too :-(
I added an horrible q'n'd mockup to explain what I'd like to have. I'll be here to discuss the idea further, if anyone care. And I will be back and try to do whatever I can to help dev of this. UFO:EU is my all-time favorite game. Even beats Scorched earth :-)
