Strategy, feedback, or anything SUBTERFUGE-related

  • So now that we have the 3D touch, I am compelled to make demands. :)

    i haven't tried it yet (should be ready to later today), but I think the basic principle is that there are 3 levels of touch.

    1. Regular tap to select
    2. Push a bit for another feature
    3. Push more for a 3rd feature

    I'm sure there are more creative things then the following to do, but the first things that come to mind are the following. these suggested functions will depend on if you have to cycle through stage 2 or can go straight to stage 3 or not. (all of these assume the regular tap remains as is)

    If the stage 2 click can be used to pop up a menu...

    On another players base
    2. Pop up context menu (thinking of a circle in sections/quadrants)
    3. Select one: send a message, view player info/notes, jump to production

    On your own base
    2. Pop up context menu
    3. Select one: jump to production, ???

    On a moving sub
    2. Pop up context menu
    3. Select One: jump to arrival, jump back to launch, see combat results

    On the transfer driller dial
    2. 50%
    3. 100%

    On a time machine future order
    2. jump to arrival
    3. cancel order

    On the time machine scrub dial
    2. ?

    On a queen
    2. jump to new hire
    2. ?

    on a specialist
    2. view promotion details
    3. promote


    If a stage 2 click can't be used to pop up a menu... Some could still work, but otherwise...

    On another players base
    2. view player info/notes
    3. send a message

    On your own base
    2. ??
    3. jump to production

    On a moving sub
    2. see combat results
    3. jump to arrival

    On the transfer driller dial
    2. 50%
    3. 100%

    On a time machine future order
    2. jump to arrival
    3. cancel order

    On the time machine scrub dial
    2. ?

    On a queen
    2. jump to new hire
    2. ?

    on a specialist
    2. view promotion details
    3. promote


    I'm sure there are better and more useful ideas... but these are the first to come to mind for me.

  • After having used 3D touch over the weekend, it appears to function like an analog control. that opens up some more possibilities...

  • appreciate the feedback on this, but this is very unlikely to happen because we have a lot of things on our list that will have much greater impact than this. also, since the game is for both iOS and android, anything we add for iOS only will be purely cosmetic as we will have to have another way to do it for android, so we're not really gaining much by making use of this.
