I like to make a suggestion that the targeting radius overlays the FoW rather then the opposite. Since i would like to know the possible maximum distance (Like scanner sweep), but can't really tell if the FoW is in the way. Or is that the grand of schemes? The fog of war is just to be a nuisance in general?

heatgenbu - the scanner has to sit in the stack of layers in a way that works for the game. We cannot put it over the fog because it then conflicts with other elements of the game (covering characters, etc). We've tested moving it up, but found it to be a step backwards for the game and have therefore decided not to change its order in the layers.

heatgenbu - I will take a look and see if it something we could fix by changing the targeting graphic itself. I agree, its an annoyance, but somethings are baked into the game engine (if you're below this layer, you can't be above that layer ... can't be in 2 places at once )

A minor related wishlist: allow scrolling while showing targeting radius. On a handheld device, the screen is quite small and often the targeting radius is partially obscured by the popup displaying the stats of the selected unit (xeno or turret). There is no way to see how far the targeting radius goes if it's too large, and there's no way to scroll as tapping the screen deselects the unit.

Haha, when I started playing I took me waaayyyy to long to figure out I could pinch zoom with my fingers.

Zoom doesn't seem to work on my phone?
However, funny thing, I notice that I can actually scroll using two fingers, even though it doesn't actually zoom... or is that what you were referring to?

That's really interesting. Pinch zoom does not work? I have never heard that report before, that's mind boogling. What type of device, OS version?

What I meant is, pinch zoom doesn't change the zoom level of the graphics (is it supposed to?), although it does allow scrolling without dismissing the status popup. This is on Samsung Galaxy A5, Android 6.0.1.

This is on Samsung Galaxy A5, Android 6.0.1. Pinch zoom controls the map zoom, yes. In fact, it does on that specific device. What other software or ROM are you running on your A5? Mine is stock OTA (5.0.2)

Hmm... I'm not running any custom software or ROM that didn't already come with the device. Maybe something my phone provider installed? How do I find the OTA version? It's not shown in "About device".

It's not shown in "About device". OTA = Over the Air. I'm just running the latest version of the OS that is provided with the device for by the carrier. For my Samsung A5, that is 5.0.2. I will check to see if I can get a 6.0 update for it. Do you have issues with multi-touch in other applications? I test that feature on about 12 pieces of hardware for every release ... and it is such a core feature of the game that I cannot imagine it not being reported 100 times a day if it actually was missing. Don't know exactly what to tell you, pretty confused by the report honestly since I have the exact device, tested a SECOND hardware of the exact same device via Dev Test Cloud. When we have a minor bug in the game I usually get 10+ emails per day, major bugs regularly generate 100 e-mails per day.

Maybe we're not even talking about the same thing. Sorry for the confusion, if you have any questions you think we can help with, just ask!
