start battle paused

Post by mqstout »

Small request, but shouldn't one of the options be to have battles start paused? I find every battle that starts, as soon as I confirm the window (during which the game does pause; I have that enabled), I find myself re-pausing the game right away to evaluate the situation and set targets.

Hm, I hadn't really thought about this, but I just realised that I do the same thing, except that I often don't even confirm the dialog until I've made evaluations to determine what I want to do, but yeah, I do generally have to immediately pause to then set all my orders.

I would likely make it a non-default option, though - I can see it confusing/frustrating some people, especially if you've got an uneven weapon loadout and aren't going to be setting any targets until your slowest weapon charges.
