I was sooper excited to find that. And I'm sure someone has pointed it out in the forums already... but still...

Maybe I should put the beer down and go to bed...

It took me a hour worth of playing in the mechlab to find that to.... it's not like it stands out at all. There's probably still some sfuff i haven't figured out. A tutorial was supposed to be introduced when the UI came out. Never happened
Sometimes I wonder if PGI sits back and watches this forum on a projector with a bag of popcorn after new stuff is released and watches us suffer just for fun

LOL!

I went on a rampage trying to tell people about that because i thought it was GREAT and very hard to find.

I wish they made it blink....or a call out or something. Callouts should show in "Tutorail" mode in the mech lab...so we can see these features more easily. Once you have it down you should be able to turn the callouts off.


I think the problem was NOT ENOUGH drinking...need more beer so you can think outside the box.

Even if you cut out eye holes and are now wearing said 30 pack on your head.

Pretty obscure. Someone showed it on another thread and I didn't even know about it...

They REALLY need to put out a tutorial and UI FAQ.

[Grommen]

They just need a nice giant arrow.

<---------Click here for more information.....

Or like in a new video game you purchase (perhaps one on steam) that has this nice little thing, What's it called.....

A tutorial on the game interface, with buttons and red blinkie lights.

But naaaa, It's more fun to watch them click and wonder...

And then every year or two change everything just cause.

Big green button that says "Variant Info" instead of what looks like a graphical doily on the corner might go a long ways here.

edit:

or you know, not even that fancy "EXPAND" might work too lol.

The button just needs to say what everyone is looking for in big bold letters: "MECH QUIRKS"

I discovered this button in the original public test only by watching a preview video by NGNG. I've posted about it several times and also suggested they make the button more prominent.

In the final version, they actually did increase the size of the button and added some graphics to try to indicate that it expands. But it's still way too nondescript. I'd really prefer an automatic pop-up when the cursor goes over any part of the Mech Stats window, that shouldn't be too hard to figure out for most people and would not get in the way. I hate clicking unnecessarily when all I need is a quick reference and then back to mech building.
