Regardless the forum holidays I think the easiest and fastest way to manage with a new inteface is:
-take out the staus and the actual hunge order table --using a single ship table available by clicking directly to the ship
-consequances: a click each single ship but no needs of dragging drop any big pop up


Alternatively - or in addition - one could have one window w/left and right arrows which one can use to cycle through the ships.

I've been thinking about those two solutions, but they would lack the ability to review all your ships orders at the same time: what if you have to check if you set all aims to rigging?
You would have to click on every ship or click many times on those arrows.
Giving orders to many ships at the same time would also need something else.

I don't think that the "huge" control window is a problem in itself, it is a problem only because when you have to look for a single ship, a long list is..too long
However, by adding the ability to select a ship in the list by simply clicking on it in the map, the problem should be solved hopefully.



I think BlueDragon needs to make few test pages to see which new interface will work better. Create few test pages with 8 vs 8 spread out on the map. We can click all we want but nothing actually will happen in the fake pages. Put the different layout of controls on these test pages. Let us try it on regular browser and handheld devices. That way we can see which one is better.
