Fairly recently when opting to plan an OC; the crime defaults to the most recent OC completed and to the team that executed it.

To do another crime and/or use a different team requires you to first deselect the players and to select the crime and team required.

This is significantly confusing and time wasting.

I use windows 10 and chrome. Is this some unsolicited upgrade from my operating system? Or planned in Torn?

In either case advice on how to keep the planning plain and simple would be appreciated.

This was a feature request - to re-initiate a previous organised crime. Once an organised crime is completed, the crime and team members are automatically selected for instant planning again.

What's the issue exactly?
Frinzell [1776252]

1/ I can see that those who wish to repeat an OC would appreciate this. Am also glad suggestions are being implemented,

2/ An Alternative. To satisfy the suggestion and Proxima's request above, I suggest a button, similar to the Post to Tornstats button, which could repeat the OC type and team with 1 click.

3/ For myself I never repeat the same team. Continually comparing different players is the key to making Tornstats ce ranking system work. I often plan and initiate the whole factions OC's in one session. This is nearly 100 players. PA's MT's PR's and a blackmail or two are planned as close to instantly as I can type. 

4/ The answer to Chedburn's question. I find that I now frequently have selected the wrong players and/or crime. I have to repeatedly deselect players so I can have the team and crime I choose. Having the previous crime and team default is making my task much more difficult, time consuming and error prone.

Thanks for your attention to this matter and feel sure there is an easy way to meet everybody's requirements.

Doesn't the new system make that better? Unselect one or two, then select who you'd like to replace them with?
Frinzell [1776252]

No; I plan teams from the tornstats rank table; when i initiate the first one (of many) it is usually a different crime with all different members. To do that having a blank list is easiest.

Wouldn't it be easier to implant a button at the bottom that says "clear all" so when the OC has been pre-selected you can just click to un-Select all members?

 

BEGIN PLANNING -  Cancel - Clear all

....I am with Frinzell and T-max on this... 

....In Evo we currently have 6 PA teams which are changed weekly. There are many players in the faction  with 60nnb. Everyone with 60nnb gets to be on one of our teams with weekly rotations.. 

....A clear all button would be extremely helpful...

I adore this!  Extremely easy to change a member or two when needed, but overall saves a lot of time and errors.  I had been asking around if someone had a script to do this.

IT IS NOW WORSE!!

The page now flats to another part of the page. So to view the results and post them to tornstats requires moving the page back!

Please could we get the plain simple and obvious layout we had before.
