Minor Interface Tweaks

Posted on Apr 7, 2012 Hi there, I just started playing this week, and I'm loving the game!I thought I'd start a topic as a catch-all for minor interface problems that I've run into that caused me some confusion or consternation until I figured them out, but that are relatively trivial to implement. A lot of this stuff is unimportant once you understand the game, but if you're seeing a lot of new players, this could help ease the learning curve. For example: I couldn't find the company balance sheets for the longest time. I thought "They *must* exist, right?" But I tried clicking everything, and no luck. Finally found them on the "Economies of Scale" title, which to my mind was 'outside' the game interface because it was outside the box. Might want to make that easier to find, and more obviously labelled. Once in the balance sheets, I noticed I was being charged about 2% loan interest. I had heard that loan interest has been increased from 0.2% to 1%, (of course, as soon as I'd taken out a loan -- bloody banks!), but that didn't seem to work either. I finally realized, once I'd done the math with a calculator, that I was paying 2.2% -- meaning that 'loan interest' included the 2% loan origination fee as well as the 0.2% interest. How about naming that line item "Loan costs" instead of the more specific "loan interest"? |

Posted on Apr 8, 2012 There is a button that takes you to the proper section for the company balance sheet. It's under the 'News' button on the right side of the yellow toolbar where your money is displayed. It takes you to the company's news events first, but then the revenue sheet is right there. I agree that maybe the revenue sheets shouldn't be hidden in the News section though.It just so happens that clicking the Economies of Scale in the top right of the window also happens to take you to the company's news section. |

Posted on Apr 8, 2012 Would it be possible to add a little notification number on the News button, to tell you how many alerts you have?

Posted on Apr 8, 2012 It's possible, I'm just a little reluctant to do it for every page transition.

Posted on Apr 9, 2012 A small search form at the top of the B2B page, so you can quickly search for a product, instead having to go through the A-Z list or Categories (you'd save one mouse click, yay!)

Posted on Apr 9, 2012 Yeah, product search form on B2B would be keen. And/or paginating the alphabetical listing by letter instead of page number, like in the EoSpedia.

Posted on Apr 9, 2012 It's possible, I'm just a little reluctant to do it for every page transition.In which case, perhaps the News button could simply change appearance if you have 1 or more notification. It could be brighter, or have an exclamation mark on it until you click it. |
