must have widgets

there is many good widgets missing from zk. Like instead icons when on radar you see ghosted units, spotterrings instead teamplatter, specific thing reclaimer, useful when map is full of tree and metal so you can reclaim metal only also you can reclaim all glaives in your army and more which dont remember right now.

Factory bar.

Semi-related anyone else notice cons getting lost and unable to finsh a command when dynamic avoidance is triggered? Or am I mistaken?

@MauranKilom: There is an auto-repair/reclaim widget, but IIRC it isn't on by default. That might be what is causing it.

I'm not sure. I turned it off in my case, which is a little annoying when I want workers to assist a factory (if I don't have enough metal income for a caretaker) but otherwise I've found it better to keep it off.

A more annoying aspect is trying to queue orders on a unit that is repairing/reclaiming due to widget, since I tend to hold Shift when giving the first order.

Also, in response to OP directly, I like to use XRayShader and Outline to make units more distinguishable from a distance, and Bloom shader (with threshold set to .9 and amplifiers at 0) for extra shininess.

quote: Dynamic avoidance causes commands to be lost Auto reclaim/repair causes cons and comms to wander randomly off instead of doign what you tell them

just edit the widget, so that you can turn the different function on and off for each unit while playing, and you are good to go.

Where do I get this "enemy aircraft spotted" widget?

I tried "installing" it earlier but put it in wrong folder and have been too lazy to fix. UNTILL NOW! So next game I'll have it.

I must warn against News Ticker. It has a tendency to lag your computer if too many messages get piled up (eg. unit lost msg).

It works well in 1v1, but the kind of huge team games we play triggers it too often.

Ivica, LOS is default on, use standard ZK minimap..

It shows both LOS and Radar range in one view mode..
