Since the last thread like this died half a year ago and most of the stuff in it has/is being addressed already/at the moment I decided not to necro it and post a new one. So if you have some QoL improvements that you'd like to see in the future patches post them here please. I'll try to collect them in the first post over the time, so please check it before posting. Future discussion on the suggestions is still welcome even after they are on the list.
(So to me my biggest one would be an option to auto-pause on event message pop-ups. I sometimes tend to run the game in windowed in the background while I do something else. It's annoying to notice that my 6/6/4 heir has died due to a plot for not sending my Regent to the salt mines or something similar.)
Is addressed in 1.8
And for the same reason option to auto-pause on specific dates, with a tag for the reason of the auto-pause. For the same reason as above, since we can't at the moment make the game auto-pause when a truce expires for example.
- Option to designate custom auto-pause dates, possibly with tags aswell.
Other new auto-pause options
- Manpower below/above a certain value
- Truce with <country> expires
- Monarch points (specific category) above a certain value
- Construction complete in a particular province
- Money below/above a certain threshold
- Particular army/fleet reaches its destination
- Option to create custom key bindings.
- Ability to que buildings construction
- Larger peace/diplomatic windows. (This is partly addressed by mods, but only from certain resolutions.)
- Ability to customise order in which information appears in the outlier. Also the ability to divide on both sides of the screen. (Some of us got quite large screens.)
- Ability to determine which units to receive a popup when they arrive to their destination. For example a checkbox similar to what the navies have as return home in the case of war.
- Message option to inform me when one of my subjects has a rebel uprising.
- Ability to chase enemy armies.
- Option to prevent captured ships from attaching to your fleets.
- A Pause button/shortcut (Not pause/unpause one, just pause,single action) This would be nice. There's been several times that I've hit to pause the games at the same time as the game pauses itself and unpaused as a consequence, which in some situation has been quite fatal to some of my troops.
- Fix tooltop overflow off screen. (Adjust tooltips so that when overflow would happen to show it in two collums for example.)
- Ability to directly control your units. (Might be abit exploitable and AoW is already addressing this in my opinion)
