List: Usability Fixes for OGame
Shortcut to message page
Add a shortcut to the message page so it can be accessed from the galaxy.
Suggestions were to add the shortcut to the galaxy button (image) or to the alliance button (image). Both buttons are still not used.
Shortcut to tech tree page
Add a shortcut to the tech tree page so it can be accessed from everywhere without have to open a detail view of a technology. Suggestions are to add the shortcut to the research button (image). The button is not in use yet.
Remove/Change “onFocus” clear field
Instead of clear the content of the field, just “selectAll” it. Would make it easier to send fleet just using the keyboard and the tab key.
Add ally name in combat reports
Now in the combat report we can see the nicknames and the coordinates. Suggestion is to add their the names of the player's alliances too.
Apply button on alliance page
If you're not currently in an alliance, you should have the ability to (when you're looking at an alliance page) apply to that alliance. There should be a button at the bottom or somewhere else saying "Apply".
Building wrench for the moon
Add a construction wrench (icon) to the moon like there is for the planet now. Either add another wrench to the planet-wrench with a different color (eg. white) or display the wrench exactly like with the planet, next to the moon icon (sort of in the planet picture).
Change color of deconstruction icon
Changing the color of the deconstruction icon to red wouldn’t cause any confusion with the construction icon.
BB-Code toolbar in message system
Add a toolbar with all available bb-codes for the message system. Like on the OGame board. But no WYSIWYG-Editor!
Message subjects
Change a few message subjects to be more clear.
- Return of a fleet to [x:x:x] optional add the planet name too.
- Reachinga planet [x:x:x] optional add the planet name too.
Message content “Fleet Command” – Return of a fleet
Add the name of the first planet too, like in the “Reaching a planet” message.
Your fleet is returning from planet name[9:354:9] to planet name [9:351:8].
Loads of javascript bugs
There are still loads of javascript bugs which I can’t mention all.
