Having just stopped playing with the pc editor .
I noticed that its INCREDIBLY easy to use. and great stuff could be created relitively fast and easily.
Easy enough to design this editor to work with a simple 360 controller
Just with the power of placing air and ground units you can make some pretty cool battles to share with your freinds and the community.
To create a unit (Air , land , sea) place your cursor (controlled by the left analog stick) On the exact spot on the map where you would want to place it.
And press A.
This will bring up a menu asking for the type of unit you want to create. (air , sea , land) followed by sub menus like (fighter,bomber,heavy bomber/ Carrier, battleship,transport/ Tanks,Artillery,anti aircraft)
after you select the type of unit an place it on the map , you can select (click on the unit to edit it) with the x button
This will bring up the edit menu .
Inside this menu will contain facts about the unit (altitude, speed , azimuth,what side its fighting for) and what weaponry its carrying(disabled for everything but aircraft). as well as if you want this unit to be player controlled or not (obviously for aircraft only)
Other than that , when you have the unit selected , move your cursor to a location on the map and press y
This will bring up the waypoint menu
Inside this menu you can select the altitute and speed you want your planes to approach the waypoint at. If you dropped the waypoint on a enemy unit , this will make this unit a target to be bombed/stafed.
after you choose the target , you can make more waypoints all the way back to the carrier or airfeild to finish the mission
This is just a rough sketch , what do you guys think?
