I know i have said this should be added many times, as i have others. Glad to see they got this in.


Command Wheel & BattleGrid: Issuing an eligible Command through either the Command Wheel or BattleGrid will now provide map coordinates with the Command. For example, issuing the Help command while in sector J11 will display in Team Chat as "Help! (J11)"

I think most important part is already in game, the player calling for help is highlighted on the map/radar. I can see anyone close by and help them, and I don't need to really help someone who is so far I can't do anything about it anyway.

I'm pretty sure that this is the part he edited because it actually makes more sense than 99% of what he posts (PLEASE like because he finds this especially annoying).

I dont think i ever used the command wheel. I just use TS.....

Well the whole point of the command wheel is that it should work alongside voicechat.

Unfortunately command wheel is missing such obvious basic features. I suppose adding coordinates to the messages is a start... but its still insufficient IMO.

But what it SHOULD do is put a green indicator on your compass bar and a green box around the mech calling for help that replaces the normal blue box for allies. That way you can actually see where the mech is that needs help without having to look at the map. Because if youre caught up in a fight you cant be looking at the map to see who needs help, it needs to be more intuitive than that.

The help call highlights the calling mech? I never noticed that.
