I'm not a fan of it. It would be great if it were optional.

My main dislike comes from it just looking bad, but also because I'm not exactly ranked very high, so I always check if people have powerful commanders before attacking. I still have to check their stats screen anyway, so it's not much use for me.

I might like it better if there was a link or something to go straight to their commander from the attack screen, but I feel this might make things more cluttered than it already is.

However it is useful to me on the rankings by relation page.

i like that it's on the relations page. the problem i got now with it is that it extends the page to double the length it was before. makes raiding more troublesome than before the update

I don't know if this has been pointed out but with the update in IE, hover over it with the mouse and it says "full turn attack" "full turn raid" or whatever, but in Firefox it doesn't and that would be useful as i won't remember which is which with the current pics :)

I like it. For attacking I do. For getting attacked, not. I got attacked 3 times so far, 2 people instantly apologized for attacking me. The third has yet to answer my question, or I'll start wiping the floor with them :sge

As many people suggested, it would suit it better if these buttons were on the Rankings By Relations > My Enemies page.

I have not used these buttons yet as I still click on the player's name to check their commander/officers (mainly because I do not want to attack an ally's commander/officer)


This is a good idea Forum, great work :smt023 But it could be improved if it were to be placed in the Rankings By Relations page and taken off the main attack page. :wink:

Hm the attack page is now nice and "compact"... but at rankings by relations page and alliance rooster pages its "drawn out" if you know what I mean... Any particular reason for the difference? It`d be ideal for the attack page "system" to be adopted on the other pages too... Looks by far the best and it acctually fits more than 5 ppl on screen :P

don't know if anyone noticed but if you are on an alliance memberlist and you click one of the buttons (though tried it only with the spy button) it says "You must use the web form to engage in attacks."

looks like a problem in the coding :D

Luckily it still warns you if you are on PPT.

another thing.
would it be possible to code the buttons in such a way that you can open a new tab (i.e. in firefox or opera). and i'm meaning a new tab, not a window since a window will jump to the foreground meaning you can't attack many targets fast consecutively

no. not all browsers have tabs. so it would not work or would at least be very messy.
and for the 'use form' error -fixed.
for the 'compact look' - fixed.
for the 'should be on relations' - done.
for ppt - i am not fixing. if you're on ppt you cannot use the buttons. even though they show up. (hmmm... i wonder if i should make it so they dont while on ppt...)

Shouldn't it be easier to mass with the buttons? Click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, click, backspace, repair...

You get my point.
