Would be very nice to be able to minimize the mini-map (top left) so when you have more than six creatures you don't have to scroll up and down continually. Maybe just adding two small icons to collapse the map just by leaving your money amount on top and another icon to maximize the map back up, if feasible of course.

Your key desire here is to get more creatures in the list. No need to even minimize the map there for it.

But yes, I tried this before in the past.

How could that be possible without removing the space the mini-map takes?

But yes, I tried this before in the past.

Did you succeed?

I did not succeed no.

I did not succeed no.

shame

What about the possibility to rearrange the list order by holding a button (ALT or CTRL) to to move up or down a creature?

Would this be doable and/or easier? Thanks!

I would be easier, still, working with the GUI is not nice. You'd want clear drag and drop feedback that is normal in all other GUIs, like windows and applications, but does not exist in the DK components. Also mind you there's already the keyboard shortcuts to determine pickup. Ctrl+icon is highest level, Shift+icon is lowest level.

I do use the shortcuts for pickups, which are great, it’s the scrolling up and down in maps with more than six creatures that bothers me a little, oh well never mind.

I just want to add what an outstanding work you are doing with keeperfx, the game was a diamond in the rough and you guys made it a gem! Thank you!

It does suck for sure. Do note there is shift+scrollwheel to ease the pain a bit.

Not sure why but the shift + scrollwheel and the location bookmarks are the shortcuts I use the least.
