While using the Ship Designer

from GalCiv2 Forums
I've only played the game a few hours and I'm sure I am in the same boat with many others when it comes to wanting an "undo" button in the ship designer. I find myself adding a component to see how it looks and then pressing "Ctrl-Z" all the time. It would be nice to maybe have the "Delete" key on the keyboard function the same way as the Remove button on the screen too.

One last thing I noticed that might be nice would be to have a "Preview" or "Turn off all Hardpoints" function. It's awfully hard to see what my ship looks like with all those red arrows Ionno, maybe hold the "Alt" key down to toggle those red arrows on and off?

Thanks in advance to you guys~ you did a top notch job with the game so far! And my apologies if my ideas have already been brought up by somebody else.

Comments are always welcome~ cheers everyone!

I've been wanting to be able to toggle hardpoint visibility also. Some jewelry are completely covered in hardpoints.

i could have sworn there was a button that says something about show/hide hardpoints. Never clicked it, but pretty sure I remember seeing it. Have you patched yet, maybe it wasn't there on the original build?

Lol~ Hardpoint toggle... found it! Top Right hand corner "Toggle Attachment Points"... my bad.

Still would like to see an undo function tho~ unless I haven't found it yet either

There is a button for removal of the piece. What you do is select the piece you want removed and there is a button that says remove next to the sizing bar. Click remove and the piece should be removed. It cannot be removed if it is in the middle of some other pieces. The program will tell you so.

My ship design wish list is for an upgrade to carry over all the equipment from the original ship, not just the extras. That way I can see if I can put something new in without having to replace all the equipment.
