Flashing manual command
« on: February 24, 2017, 06:35:01 AM »

So I was having a good run last time which includes getting special codes from NPCs to be used when hacking. And I was like, "Yes! I can finally use them!" The only problem is....I tend to forget to use it! If I was playing the whole run in one sitting, I probably wouldn't have such  problem. But if I'm playing in multiple sessions (sometimes over a long period of time), I forget very easily. It was only until I look back at the scoresheet after finishing a run when I realized it.

So I was thinking if it's ok to make the manual command stand out a bit if I have a special code, maybe making it flash or giving it a different color, at least when starting a new session. I think that should make it easier to remember.

Hm, maybe. It could certainly be an option, though for it to do that by default would also be distracting. Or maybe just flash for a bit then return to normal color would be a better solution.

I know I've forgotten once before as well, and it probably would've saved me had I known xD.

I'll add it to the long-term list of potential features. (This one would be rather costly to implement in terms of dev-time-to-benefit ratio.)
