[Suggestion] For better screenshot sharing, a way to show all relevant info on a grid map

Postby Tibushu » Fri Mar 16, 2018 2:48 pm

People on this forum and places like reddit are naturally sharing screenshots of the game. In particular for the purpose of asking "what should you do on this turn?", there's currently no way to easily show the full relevant state of the game, like how many squares each mech can move, the hp remaining of each enemy, how much damage each unit's ability does, whether any 1-use-per-map abilities have already been used, etc etc

So people either post a screenshot without enough info to solve, or do things like photoshop a bit of extra on top, eg: https://imgur.com/exdYUPq

Not sure of the most elegant way to visualize all the info that's needed. Maybe an expanded view of the mech-list on the left, and a similar view for all bad guys on the right?

This is a great suggestion! Providing an intuitive way to display all relevant information will help players easily identify optimal actions. I hope that this idea will be considered and implemented in the future. rice purity test
