Subject: Future Feature Concern... Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I'm just a bit new around the actual forums of this website. I just wanted to point out a little concern on a minor detail in M.A.X. Reloaded that does not match the abilities the classic M.A.X. allowed you to do that was critical to the game (at least in my strategy). I remember being able to right click an enemy unit and being able to view their information revealing all the upgrades that had been done to that unit in particular. That always helped in my strategy immensely and I was just curious if this is a planned future feature. Just figured it could be one of those minor little things that could slip through the cracks easily and figured I'd express my concern. Also, one other thing. I know the old M.A.X. didn't feature this (not that I know of at least), but I think a team play mode would be beneficial to multiplayer mode - not sure if this is included already or planned for M.A.X. Reloaded so, just throwing it out there. At any rate, great job so far. Awesome remake!

Subject: Re: Future Feature Concern... Hello! There are two ways how you can solve this issue - you can change the mouse style in the keys.xml to the old_school way the line should look like this <MOUSE_STYLE Text="OLD_SCHOOL"/> - or ( without changing anything in the keys.sml file )you click on the questionmark in the menu first and then on the opponent unit to see the details either way should work, but I prefer to play with the old_school setting anyway ;D

the line should look like this

<MOUSE_STYLE Text="OLD_SCHOOL"/>

- or ( without changing anything in the keys.sml file )you click on the questionmark in the menu first and then on the opponent unit
to see the details

either way should work, but I prefer to play with the old_school setting anyway ;D

Subject: Re: Future Feature Concern... And the third way is to select the enemy unit and press 'h' on the keyboard But the Info-Button for the unit menu is also on our todo list. About the teams: yes, there will be teams in the future We all like the idea of having teams in multiplayer mode. But we still need a bit time, before we can start to implement that.
