the 20 unit limit - suggestion for fixing

[dj jones]

yep, would be great. But I bet if the player had the control, then most of the complaints would go away.

Truthfully, how often do you put any of your troops under AI control? the AI is just poor - making a good AI is very difficult, and I would rather they spend the time giving us the control rather than making the AI that we cant control better ...

'course, both would be best!

When you dig you find... And what have I found here... A statement from CA saying they might implement the 'several army command'. Very nice and I really think we should remember this.

I'm gonna dig up this thread again because.....

I was doing some reasearch for scripting, (see my post in the guides) and I was looking for commands in the descr_shorcuts.txt file. I found this:

		next_army					TAB CTRL	hidden

Could this mean that when Jerome posted:

Yep, fine thought. We did actually consider doing this some time ago, but decided against it for various reasons lost in the depths of time We may come back to this one...

He means they actually implemented it?

What happens if you remove the 'hidden'. Does the shortcut then work. Could all our problems be solved. Probably not, but I haven't tested it yet so you never know... ;)

Oops, I just realised how stupid I have been, it probably just moves to the next army on the campmap. Still I haven't tested it yet, I'm just not very confident about it.
