Having to press <Enter> or <Return> on the strategic map is a pain, <space bar> works so nicely in tactical batles and should work on the strategic map as well.
I admit this might not be a problem for left handed people and maybe the responible coder is one of them.
Space Bar works in tactical battles?
Personally I'd hope for the Enter button to work in tactical battles ... as that's what I always use in strategic map.
Yes, <Space Bar> works in tactical.
With the mouse in my right hand, <Space Bar> is much more comfortable to press instead of <Enter> or even <Return>, for which I have to reach over half of the keyboard.
But space bar is already the key in strategic map for ending *units* turns. If you make it also the key for ending your whole *sides* turn then it would be very easy to hit it once too often and thereby end your turn before you organised your build queues etc.
I'm against the idea.
Didn't know about "unit turns", but I understand that this might be useful for people relying on "Auto turn".
Easy solution: toggle the functionality with the "Auto turn" option in the game preferences, as ending "unit turns" doesn't make any sense if "Auto turn" is disabled.
Another soultion would be configurable keyboard shortcuts. I would immediately switch <Enter> and <Space Bar>.
Hmm I see. on my laptop the space bar is next to an activated mouse pad that I no longer use, hence I haven't used it yet.
What I would like to see is Enter being a possibility in the tactical maps, as sometimes the UI gets stuck and I can't end a units turn.
(also the "Defense" skill for sheilds needs to have faster animation, it forces me to go 2x animation in all shield related battles)
-> as can be infered from above, it only needs to be twice as fast as it is now
