[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="37" id="2878631"] Quoting Derek Paxton, reply 35 But I would bet that if you talked to Cameron there are hundreds of things he would have liked in the movie that simply weren't executable. So even in a 300 million dollar movie its all about matching ambition and execution. Like a goo

[quote]The only thing I would suggest is more proof-reading of the text. Part of the text switches verb tenses at one point, and there are some typos/spelling errors here and there.[/quote] That is on me. Will keep an eye on it. Should be cleaner next edition. ;)

I would love to take on that challenge but... My PC, running Vista if it matters, seems not to like loading back to back Tact maps and or switching between Tact map creation and the Tile editor. (very sour at this time) I have one question another Modder/Tiler (or anyone at all really) may be able to answer. Is it possible to create a test map, and load it in a new game without restarting Elemental totally.

Gotta run the MODS dude. Haven't even seen Vanilla since the new Chocolate/Blueberry/Raspberry/Coconut/Cherry flavor was introduced. P.S. For the non cryptic readers among us, that would be (in no particular order btw) EF/ACP/UW/EM/MG (+ with some other sprinkles of course) :)

[quote who="Winnihym" reply="269" id="2872095"]Okay, JH, I'll repost. Yes, the anvils are scale appropriate. What do you mean by shrink the center core? You mean the pedestal, or the water piece?

Winnihym, would you put a Pedestrian on it for scale reference.Those are Anvils right? Only comment that comes to mind right off. If you can only ever see 2 flames when placed on the Map, without rotating the Map, forgo the 4 flames, shrink the center core and replace the Water piece into a smoking cauldron

I know it is a tad late to expect, but would it be possible to have it so that if I have 4 single (early) designed units, I can gather them and then create a proper "Squad", the same as if I had waited/tech and had the capacity to build actual "Squads of 4"? Same should go for the other groupings as well? 8's and 12's. Given that a single early designed unit cannot be further upgraded after creation, <span

Put me down for an Upgrade to the Tiles with my name on them. It is true that the 1x1 work but are hard to see when zoomed out. Each GH should have a sparkly (some color) with it thought right, so it stands out on the Map?

How about a Chalet type building, that is set into the rock face, set high up on a mountain and uses your pillar structures as the supports to keep it there, (using way more snow rock) type theme. P.S. I knew the House broke the "Rule" but I liked it enough to embellish it a bit. Should look great with the Single fall.

And what do you do without a local copy of apps needed to run your business when you Inet goes away for 2-3 days. Not to mention that Licenses that aren't attached to a box (you own per say), will be highly susceptible to price fluctuations based on the service providers whims.

OK, here is s request I hope can be adjusted in game without any real issues, or I am seeing it and no one else is. With the current additions of more Special abilities (which are wicked good btw) to the pick stack, it has become nigh on impossible, or very very frustrating to pick them for use as the description pop up card is covering over the top item(s) of the growing/expanding list.
