Title: New keyboard shotcuts
Post by: blackswan on April 27, 2009, 08:16:09 am

I think it will be useful to have some keyboard shortcuts for chancing the "speed of time". For example in combat mode I can press the buttons from 1 to 8 to select the soldier, so in the world map I should press 1 to 8 to get:
1. 5 seconds
2. 5 minutes
3. 1 hour
4. 12 hours
5. 1 day

A bit like the old X Com Concept?
Or was it the old UFO Extraterritial's concept??

I played a lot of times the X-COM serie, and I think this kind of shortcuts are handful. Just my opinion, it's reasonable.

I believe this is much easier to accomplish, considering that there is key binding function in the codings already. Just need to see who is going to help implement this into actual binding works. :D
