- Notify Features
- Notify started as a way to allow ACU upgrade progress to be communicated nicely to the team. FAF has taken it to the next level.
- Support for sending notifications about ACU upgrades, Factory Tech upgrades (HQs), Experimental construction, and Nuke and T3 Artillery construction
- By default, you will see notifications about ACU upgrades only, as well as an ETA overlay at the location of the upgrading ACUs
- Toggles available to define which types of messages you want to see come in from allies
- Notify messages limited to only show the first of each HQ type, Experimental (Non game-ender), Nuke, or T3 Artillery to avoid spamming the chat with notifications late-game
- Notify UI
- Selecting your ACU will show any upgrades it has completed for each slot above the UI in the bottom left corner
- There is an in-game customisation menu UI. It can be accessed via the main menu, or with a key bind. Default binding is CTRL-ALT-F1
- Full customisation of all Notify messages is enabled, including resetting to default
- All message types are broadcast at all times. The menu allows you to customise which messages you see, using toggle buttons at the top of the customise.
- Colour of Notify messages can be changed inside the chat window
- Upgrade Queuing
- ACU Upgrades can now be queued up the same as any other construction project
- Unfortunately, due to an engine limitation, upgrades cannot be UN-queued (You can only stop the ACU, cancelling the in progress work orders)
- ACUs can queue buildings from an uncompleted tech level if the upgrade is queued
- Hotbuild has the ability to correctly access the uncompleted tech level buildings tooltip
- Blacklisted all previous Notify mod versions
