Fighting/Scroll Issues Solved

Share:

Many players don't like to manually fight because the screen jumps all over the place and you have to do a lot of scrolling to get to the Power Attack or Attack buttons. There is an easy fix for this problem and it works great! Unframing isn't necessary but I found things run a little smoother when the screen is unframed. To start having a better fighting experience, follow the steps below.

1.  Go to your fight list.

2.  In FireFox or Chrome, zoom your screen to about 50%. Holding the Control Key and the Minus Sign Key at the same time will make your screen smaller for each click on both browsers. To adjust the screen size without the hot key command, do the following.

a.  FireFox

Go to the View tab located in the upper left corner, click on Zoom and then Zoom Out.  Repeat the process until you are at about 50%. It's easier to just click Control and the Minus Sign at the same time but this is where you will find the commands to easily reset it. Clicking Control and the Plus Sign will also get you there.

  b.  Chrome

Go to the little wrench in the upper right hand corner and and locate the minus sign next to Zoom. Click it to about 50%. The same command keys of Control and the Minus Key will also work in Chrome.

3.  Now have fun fighting and never have to scroll the page! It takes a little bit to get used to the small screen but it's so nice to see everything. Here is a view where you can clearly see the Power Attack button. Never miss an ice again because you had to scroll.

If you wish you could see your loot drops right away and didn't need to scroll down, this is the solution for you.

If you ever felt guilty for not sending your mafia their Secret Stashes because you didn't want to scroll, this is the way to go. I never felt that bad because the Secret Stashes rarely work!

If you don't use an auto-healer, you will like fighting from a smaller because you can heal without any scrolling.

I was thrilled to find this because I'm still working on the one achievement I don't have. The only way to legitimately get the What's After Trillion? is to do the Boss Fight over and over again. I was getting so tired of the attack/scroll/attack loop and now that's no longer an issue.

Thanks to Stewart Frankson for showing me this easy solution the problems I had with manual fighting. I'd also like to thank the fighters in the PAC for expressing their issues with fighting. I always assumed the fix was to run Brawler but I learned a lot about what happens in wars and see there is a large group where Brawler ins't the solution. I hope this helps our Clans and Families have better warring experiences.  The fighters in the group still have issues with the screen bouncing around which I found less of in an unframed state. That issue was addressed and hopefully Zynga can look into a fix.
