Reclaiming
I dunno if its been suggested before but I find it very annoying when im playing a map like small supreme battlefield with lots of trees and im trying to reclaim wreckages and it just keeps reclaiming trees I think it would be better if there was an option to choose wether you want to reclaim energy or metal so u can set ur cons to reclaim all the metal in 1 rather than having to select each wreckage 1 by 1 cos trees are in the way.

Re: Reclaiming
Was thinking about this too. I tried one reclaim widget recently and it doesn't really allow you to choose what to reclaim but it just reclaims one or the other and also it does it in a weird take as long as you can fashion.BattleMonk wrote:I dunno if its been suggested before but I find it very annoying when im playing a map like small supreme battlefield with lots of trees and im trying to reclaim wreckages and it just keeps reclaiming trees I think it would be better if there was an option to choose wether you want to reclaim energy or metal so u can set ur cons to reclaim all the metal in 1 rather than having to select each wreckage 1 by 1 cos trees are in the way.
Sorry if I'm mistaken but I don't know of any other widget that allows you to reclaim whatever you choose. A smart widget where E or M is reclaimed depending on what your stalling on would be nice.
Re: Reclaiming
the reclaim widget works fine for me, when u reclaim a tree and make then that circle, the con will reclaim just e-stuff (same for M)

Re: Reclaiming
In Supcom and IIRC OTA too, placing con units on patrol would make them only reclaim things that you did not have full storage of. I can't remember if spring con units have the same functionality, but if they don't, it would be a good thing to include...
Re: Reclaiming
Even in OTA they'd get stuck if they found a construction to assist - it was annoying - you're stalling, set a guy on patrol, and he goes and helps the nearby HLT you're building... when the whole reason you put him on patrol was to fetch some metal for that HLT.
