Sick of seeing this overused **** idea in AT every month. However if it is optional like you mentioned I don't care. Common sense tip: Scroll on the side of the screen that doesn't have hire on it.
Never once had it while scrolling, so for me it's nothing to do with that, I just accidentally hit it at other random times. Usually while stripping. If I am burning 24 xtals in a strip, that's 18 x 24 = 432 times I hit the steal button on that target. Sadly during that mindless button mashing I have been known to loose concentration and accidentally hit hire.
Yes. I have done that around 20x. On that note it would be awesome if this were toggle able. It would make vollies suck if not.
I'm on the fence on your idea. On one side, I see where your coming, pressing the wrong button can happen so fast. On the other side, if you are stuck with inactive allies, you are glad when they are hired by mistake. I've sold some really crappy inactive allies, and I often suspected it was that kind of mistake from the new owner.
@GoldenTroll, right handed people have difficulty. I don't, but I prefer too, or only lost maybe 20b from this but I'll up port for those who lose much more.
It's a great idea but devs dun want to go with it - ideas similar to this have been proposed It makes sense to do this - everything in kaw has a confirmation button of some sort - even droppin allies.
