Was watching the latest Uber playtest and Meta was spectating and heard a nuke explosion and scrambled to find what had happened. So I had this idea for Spectator specific notifications. This'll allow commentators to better see what's going on and some of the notifications would need to remain spectators specific as they'd provide too much info for the players. Some notification possibilities: Player arrived at new planet Commander under attack Nuke launch Halley being built Planet smashing engaged and others? Thoughts? Additional notification ideas?
The notifications would be great. Also a spectator slot maybe and it would be really helpful that the spectator is able to see the Eco management of everybody. Edit: maybe a notification, if this impossible to make, when a big army is moving. Because when you see the other side of the planet, this would be a shame to not see what happend there, and in the middle of the march to use chrono cam is not the best way.
Will we be getting player notifications for things such as nuke strikes? I can imagine it would be useful when you are managing three planets, to know where something just got obliterated and needs attention. I think the commander arriving at planet would also be pretty useful for players, and maybe a notification to tell you that you are out of anti nukes... I like your suggestions for spectator notifications too, although I wonder if the UI for notifications would have to be amended slightly to allow for a greater number of things that could pop up...maybe something along the side, like the chat window?
Yupp definitively something that should be in ... one thing i imagine being hard to make notifications of though is where the really intresting battles are happening for when there is a multifrontwar in a multiplanet match
That quite possibly be a challenging notification. But would be a very handy one to have. Such spectator notifications would be a great way to turn PA into an eSport, which is something we all want.
Is this gonna be happening anytime soon? Especially when paired with this? https://forums.uberent.com/threads/...ful-by-combining-it-with-notifications.64616/ Would be awesome for commentating matches. Real useful for keeping track of things.
