Post subject:  message/timer or automatic planet abilities

after missing a couple of enriches i thought it would be nice if dan added a way to put a timer or message alert for your planetary abilities. He could go as far as making a mission/chain to make the planetary abilities automatic. to me this is would be a quality of game update like using multiple artifacts/rank points. what are your thoughts on this?

-1

the point of the timers is to keep people logging in regularly. making it 'automatic' would be defeating the purpose.

Agreed.

-1 to the idea.

This is true and it's one of the things that keeps people coming back, but personally I tend to forget the timers, and miss them. I think it would be nice to have some sort of reminder that an ability is ready.

the people who have -1 have seemed to forget the first part. i proposed also to have a message or timer that you can set that will alert you the an ability is ready to use. surely that wouldn't stop people from coming on. the automatic part was just another option.

Put the timer on the Home tab when it is on cooldown. But I wonder where should it be placed, it's too crowded already :P

While I don't see it happening as there is a lack of game updates, I'd like to see most abilities timers changed to that of the daily reward, and renewed with the daily reward...

Code:
So you click daily reward and get a pop-up box:
-You gain 251187 Mineral Units
-You gain +2 Research from Q-Pedd Assembly Line 2.0
-You gain +2 Research from Q-Pedd Assembly Line 2.0
-You gain +2 Defense from Cybernetic Link Interface
-You gain +2 Uldri Trade Credits from Uldrinan Quota (Race Ability)
-You gain Tribute of the X from Thraccti, Scruuge Defector (Ship Ally) Next Tribute in 2nd daily reward
-Vortov, Hired Mercenary (Ship Ally) has found you a bounty, find it on your battle tab. Next Tribute in 2nd daily reward

-Do you want to renew VARA Interface on Planet X Yes|No

-Do you want to renew Trellith Influence on Planet X Yes|No
-Do you want to renew Trellith Influence on Planet Y Yes|No
-Do you want to renew Trellith Influence on Planet Z Yes|No

-Do you want to renew Gateway Nexus Link on Planet X Yes|No
(Insert how many times you have these installed)

Available Timers
-Bainer ability waiting
-Other Race abilities mention here
-Invasion timer open (or time until open)
-Other?

Close


This way you still have to do all the clicking and you have to do it daily but it is in one easy to use place rather than a lot of different ones with a lot of unnecessary scrolling.

For the space issue dan could make the home page customizable so you can see what you want to see

I disagree. The point of the timers is to keep one from using an ability on ALL of their planets.

Of course I would optimize it one step further with a checkbox + renew all.
