This is a list of suggestions to improve the HOI3 experience. Feel free to add more:
-If you click Alt+mouse button in a HQ corps in the ouliner all the divisions in charge of the corps are selected (I mean not the HQ only their divisions) that could avoid a few clicks and make the management so much easy and good.
- Improve menu and font sizes for resolutions over 12XX/7XX
- Autosliders for production and leadership
- Number of brigades or divisions above the counter or the sprite for fast
division seeing in map
- Change of colours for the name of objectives active for AI HQs (I mean at the moment the order of a HQ shows in bright white but orders to others HQs are just white and it looks confusing. A green vs white color could be better)
-Minimap evolution of night and day (Shadow just as in HOI2 I don´t know why this feature is out, it was really helpful)
-Make easier to select/deselect units (Take them by point and drag and then click in whatever point of the unit. At the moment is only possible to deselect by clicking on X or select only a unit in a group, really annoying) (Me and Floppy)
-Make great naval units as any other unit - that means with upgradeable parts (NurAbSal)
-Sprites can be enabled independently for naval, air or land troops (A lot of us want to play with land counters but air and naval sprites!!!)
- possibility to rearange military structure in the outliner wich would make rearranging your troops far more comfortable (Schwarzie)
- Provincenames always on (Schwarzie)
- Map accuracy increase (Mountains, rivers, province names...) (Sturr)
- MP brigades could give a bonus to transport throughput in the province they are. (Imagine you could do a corridor protected by MP brigades to assure the supplies. They could also help in bottlenecks if not good infra provinces are posible. Their use should be a must in Harbors. The bonus shouldn´t be acumulative to avoid exploits) (Aragos)
- A way to have a unit "Support Attack" just via a shortcut key, Alt+ right click, or something -- instead of ctrl + right click, then select Support, then hit Accept. (xJermx)
- zoom in / zoom out via keyboard also and not only mouse wheel (Alan_le_cowboy)
- direct access to different statistic screens via menu picklist (yes as in HOI2) (Alan_le_cowboy)
-when you cancel a unit in your production queue, the window that pops up has "Cancel" on the left side and "OK" on the right - the standard in Windows has it vice versa, OK is always on the left side (just check just about any application pop up, that's how it is in most cases). (jusas)
-Ability to close pop ups with the enter key (for example after giving air units their commands, you should be able to close the pop up with only enter key) its really annoying that you have to press accept with the mouse cursor all the time. (Laurwin)
-Naval and air force HQs seem like a good and historically accurate idea. Bomber command, Oberkommando der Kriegsmarine etc... with the appropriate naval and air commanders in charge of the HQs of course. (Laurwin)
-Being able to see the politics ministers, laws and so on of other countries (Davisx3m and MerrickChance)
- Click the map in the top left to go to map mode (exit out of current tab) (Regulark)
- Double click research item to begin research (instead of click then > Start Research) (Regulark)
- Stop asking me if I want to change intelligence options (Regulark)
- Stop asking me if I want to change a law (Regulark)
- Easier way to tell who the current minister is when replacing (Regulark)
- Reintrodution of the military control of the puppets. (Rosario)
- Reintroduction in the diplomatic option of the comand "ask expeditionary forces".(Rosario)
Plz take that into consideration.
If any more people want to make any more suggestions please post here.
