Compatibility & Tips
Player Aid hover performance tip
The hover text player aids can impact module performance if mis-configured. The key settings are found on the module Preferences…General tab (see below). Select the first of these to invoke the tooltip manually; with this setting, you select the item and then press Control+Space. Otherwise, set the delay time high enough to avoid inadvertently triggering the player aid displays (typically 350-500ms). The inherent delay of a player aid hover-text display is 1-2 seconds.
Backward compatible with version 4.1.x log and game files.
Requires Vassal v3.7.5 or later. Recommended heap size: 1024 Mb (set in Preferences…General tab).
