Ideas / Battle stations!
October 08, 2014, 11:38:56 AM
I would love to be able to save certain orders for colonists which could be toggled on with a 'Battle stations!' button.

Things I'd like to be able to set/change with battlestations:
- Priorities
- Draft status
- Position to head to
- Arm yourself with x if available (A priority list would be even better here)

So, pirates are approaching! Oh no- Better hit that button.

*Bloop*

My machine gun wielders drop their current job and get into position behind the sandbags, snipers take up covering positions, our keenest eye mans the mortar and the resident doc is ready and waiting to deal with any casualties while our non-violent cook takes cover in the bunker.

Once a fight is over, I can toggle 'Battle Stations' back to off, un-drafting everyone and sending their priorities back to normal.

I'd be much more inclined to try and build an open-area base if this were implemented.

What do you think?
