[Simple UI Suggestions From The Fans] Strategic Spell Book Remember Last Spell, hotkey or a Strategic Toggleable "favorites" panel.

This would make it a lot easier when you want to cast the same spell multiple times.  As it is it is very cumbersome to have to click 4 or more times each time a spell is cast!

Really good, simple idea.

If I may, I'd even go as far as to make the spellbook remember the spell you last cast and select that when the book is opened. That way, if you intend to cast the same spell several times, you'd only need to press M -> Cast Spell or Spells -> Cast Spell.

That my friend is exactly the way to accomplish this... a hotkey that casts the previous spell casted.

hotkey

What's this you speak of?

I want the same thing we have in tactical on the main strategic screen with a hotkey to toggle it on and off. There are at least 5 spells I use all the time that need to be easy to get to.

hotkey

 

^Amen.

 

Although a quick-launch bar on the Main Game Window would add a nice bit of magical color to the UI.

Even just permitting quick access to certain schools of spells by putting the spell book tabs on the side of the Main Game Window would help.

I think all  hotkeyed items should have an interface button equilevant!
