Hi!

Just a suggestion: Could it be possible to tell AI followers that they should stop following you around?

This would be handy in those situations, where you have stealth conquered an enemy base. If you don't stay at the base but leave with all of the men, the enemy are probable to recapture within minutes, as new men rarely spawn at the base. It would be nice to tell some of your men or all of them to stay as defenders while you move on.

You could try to release your squad by pressing PAGE DOWN a few times to lower the count of members your squad preferably has. With any luck, the AI commander should use those free guys to defend the newly captured base. It's possible it doesn't work exactly like that, I haven't specifically tested it, but in theory that is what most likely should happen.

After releasing your squad, leave the base and take a good distance before raising the preferred squad size back to whatever you want by pressing PAGE UP, so that the guys won't join your squad again.

Which reminds me, the keys like increasing/decreasing squad size and score ("delete") should be customizable via controls menu :).

I'd add all the keys to the controls config if I had an already implemented control for scrolling UI :D

I'm constantly having to reduce their size and spacing, I guess the menu is already unreadable on 640x480? :)

Anyway, I hope I can get that done too eventually!
