    Star Menu - Specialists tab

    Can this tab please be better arranged? Troop transport shows up in between my geologists. Marshalls are scrambled in between my generals. There is no logic in this. How about:?
    MMA/Major/other special gens, normal gens, troop transport, fast explorers, slow (normal) explorers, fast geologists, slow (normal) geologists, whatever I'm forgetting, marshalls.

    Or add an option to arrange this. Or make the specialists always appear in alphabetical order (since we can assign names to them we can then still make our own arrangement in star)

    And please also an option to hide marshalls.

    (I did read something about resources, buffs and adventures in star going to be easier to manage but can't remember if I read anything about specialists)

    In light of recent 'improvements' this can only end with marshalls getting their own tab and everything else remaining exactly as it is now.

    it's annoying that we can't rearrange generals, explorers and geologists in order. an example could be.
    Explorers: 3 Lucky Explorers; 3 Experienced Explorers; 3 Savage Scouts and so forth.
    Generals: Mg, Vet, MMA, Brighthead, Regular, Santa QM.

    I find it annoying that specialists is a complete mess because stuff is added in order it's purchased.

    Lightbulb Generals on Parade

    For four+ years, players have been asking for the order of generals/explorers/geologists to be reorganised. As we know they are shown in the order of purchase. This means nothing to most of us, who would rather have the opportunity of grouping together all of 1 type instead of searching through maybe 25 or more, to find the 2 MoD's etc.
    I for one would like to have all my vets together, all my BHG's together, etc etc..... and no, I'm not really OCD about it..... well maybe just a tiny bit.
    Look at it from a military parade point... you don't see the bigwigs hobnobbing with the recruits, lol

    There's probably a dozen threads about this, buried in the dungeons somewhere, so I thought it time to resurrect the idea.

    Merged

    I agree with TheFairy, all generals, explorers and geologists should be sorted (or making doable for us sorting them as we wish, at least).

    I think I saw another post mentioning that today in fact. I completely agree that we should be able to order the generals as we see fit. There is an order - but it's purchase order within the type of general, and not intuitive to me. I would think it wouldn't be that hard to add a key (index) to the table and let us set that key so that the display is how we would like it. The only problem I see is that I can't think of a screen that allows anything like that, so a new interface would have to be developed. Then what would follow is "why not the entire star menu and all buffs, adventures, resources".....

    I would love to see it but I suspect the cost of the change places it later than other changes they probably want to make.

    Regardless, I'd love to see it and I think it would be a great enhancement.

    I presume the easiest alteration would be to change the sort order to type from purchase order. I'm sure this would make ALL settlers much happier... any other change suggested would lead to more data sent between user and server and we all know where that leads

    Yes, I know this thread was initially started back in 2015 and it would be nice to just know that this is being considered. It is highly annoying when you are trying to assign troops and you see that your generals are not put together because nobody is going to have all their tavern generals bought at the same time, especially when the final one costs 20k coins.
