VK, I was curious about you implementing a feature into NPatch. In Generals, there is a special combat system known as Generals Powers. As you battle, you gain experience and are capable of unlocking new SWs and forces to use. Is there anyway we could see this go into NPatch ever?

Developers don't need ANY demands at all. This is including a hidden demands also. Don't send demands by email or PM messages - developers will ignore it.

I am still "anti-VK" (I still protest against some NPatch related things) and I just wanted to show why.

Demands - not suggestions and ideas.
Demands like: Hey, bitch, you must implement this fucking feature.

this can be done using global score value.
then can be something like: AvailableIfScoreGreater=1000, AvailableIfScoreLess=1000.
So then you kill some unit you can have new construction options!

Could it possibly be done on superweapons? (eg; you specify the amount of points and use AuxBuilding to control what building uses it)... or something like that.

Possible.
But player should see his "experience" points somewhere.
otherwise this is rather stupid. you can't determine when you will have next upgrade.
Possible solution - a "experience" line at the top of screen.

Speaking of space - VK, are you concidering into moving/ changing/ resizing the sidebar? Adding the power toggle, perhaps this function and any other that might come in future will require some space.

no.

Toggle power done as key. (So you press Ctrl+Q for example).
This is optional, except toggle power icon.

Realism is so overrated it isn't even funny. You already know what happens in reality, how is that entertaining...?

I don't see why you would need to know when your going to get the upgrade and if so then I think Mig's idea of a SW like icon would be better.

Another idea im not bothered about but might be interesting is an upgraded sidebar with more tabs. There could be a Super Weapon tab, a Chrono Bay tab, a Para war factory tab or even a Naval tab.

1)Sidebar haven't any toggle power button at all.
2)You can enable key using UseTogglePower tag
3)NPSE include a updated version of poweroff.shp.
4)When unit with Temporal=yes on warhead attack building, you will see toggle power icon on it.
5)You can replace poweroff.shp by transparent 1x1 image.

Think you could make it possible for us to replace the Repair sidebar button for a Power button?

Repair=no
Power=yes

That would be good. Especially since a lot of mods simply give an automatic repair ability anyways...

Yeah thats sounds really good and orginised. More tabs would mean more space and mods might become more highly developed. I also like the Idea of replacing the Repair icon because thats isnt used much as Gosho said.
