I think it would be nice to receive comm notifications (legion-wide, in red like the lock alert) when the base hull drops below certain percentage, as opposed to having to check it every minute for attacks. 10% increments.

Wont that mean you would have to constantly check the legions comms as well? last time i checked the legion comm doesnt always update instantaneously. So that would mean you would have to look at legion comm window and refresh it rapidly to get the message ASAP. Although this will be more informative, it will still require checking something constantly.

Nah, comms update about every 30 seconds, which is good enough in most cases.

i think a pop-up would be ok every 10% (90, 80 , 70 , etc)
after reaching 10% another pop-up with a repair option would be cool

with a setting to turn this off/on as well

I actually kind of like this, with the feeder system in place for most high end legions, it would force a bit more thought into the process, sure it won't save most bases, but when we try and cheat a tougher one with a short lock it will make us pump a bit more effort and separate the men/women from the boys/girls

While i can see the argument behind this, might i suggest it does NOT warn in 10% blocks?

If you get one at 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 % for example, and repair your base 20 times, thats 100 lines of comm spam.

That would be horrible.

With that in mind, how about 20% or 25% increments?

Yeah I was thinking about that actually as it would trigger a lot. Larger increments would be good, or custom setting for say 3 different % to alert on.
