I like any idea to fiddle and/or move end attacks and fortify button, many a time i have hit end fortify (just yesterday for instance) and have lost valuable help to my teammate.

'End attacks' warning pop-up!

Post by General Mayhem »

could you possibly add something simple to the 'my settings'.

I keep playing and sometimes without realising i click the 'END' attack or END fortify by mistake. Such a simple mindless error but easily made, i bet by lots of people. Its driving me nuts!

Could a warning box pop-up before endings, that requires an okay click??

I put it on my to-do list.

By making it a setting, poeple who need confirmation will have it and those who don't won't get an annoying popup message.

Will there be an option to have a confirmation checkbox right on the same page with the button? For those people who need confirmation but don't want to be annoyed?

Maybe just put the button farther away from the attack button...that would solve my idiotic clicking of the thing...NOT a pop up is my vote otherwise

no pop up as my computer blocks those...move it away from the other buttons or a check box would be best...

Just moving the END commands(Fort and attack) further to the right would work fine.

Moving the button would work the best, but if that is not easily done a checkbox would wholeheartedly be more preferred than a pop up.

Seeing as we're all stating our opinions as fact:

A checkbox would be more effective than simply moving it.

Either of them works just fine. Check box or a button move. :)

I say checkbox or button move as I hate popups with a flaming passion even if they are from a friendly site for a good reason.

the end attack button... again

Post by john123 »

i know its been brought up loads of times but i really think there should be a confirmation of end attacks pop up. i know your a busy man lack and you're running a great site that must take up loads of your time but if you could sort it out the entire cc comunity would be even more endebted to you.

Is the problem just accidentally clicking on it when you're attacking?

If the button was just underneath the rest of the buttons it would probably solve the problem without the confirmation dialogue box.

AMEN!

Once again I've deployed my troops to make a move, actually selected the countrie to attack from and to AND then hit the End Attack button.

I don't know why it happens, but this is at least the 5th time I've done it.

Yes, please add this little thing. I did it again. 3rd time in 5 games. My fault? Of course. That's why I need help.
