    As a veteran user, it will be a change but most likely (according to OP) it will speed things up a little soon into getting used to it. for the beginning users I believe it will VASTLY improve their experience and willingness to learn. Plus, since almost anything that is neutral or better for the established clientele AND easier / better for new users is beneficial for both SW and the player base as a whole, I say NICE JOB!

    I'm used to radial menus from NWN times but I must say, this type is way faster even for me.

    One thing though. Right click on main area > Exit Program should be under the Return to Launcher. I accidentally exit a lot.
    If you want to Solo your way through FGU, I write about Solo RPG methods and reviews for Resources in my All Things Solo blog.
    Actual Play Logs are in Solo Play Adventures. And Solo GM Notes are in GM's Tome of Experiments.
    Now with Solo Playground - Solo Play Workbook & Battlefield Mainframe - Solo Combat Hub

    Coming from 12+ years of NWN, I never found the raidal menu to be an issue, but if this is seen as a "step forward", I'm certain I'll manage to adjust.

    Should also be a major help for some interesting tabletop setups, such as using a touchscreen as a tabletop.

    Sounds like a nice change, thanks! Especially in the action tab that might be useful with its different delete buttons so that the text next to the buttons helps me (delete spell or delete just one of its actions; too often I click on the wrong one).

    Thanks for those improvements. They are nice and easy to get used to. Can the Module Activation Window take advantage of it too? This window is very limited in size.

    I know there's a Test server, but on occasion I can't or don't want to spend time getting a Test client up and running. It doesn't look like it's actually as radical and catastrophic a change as I was worried it would be, but since Smiteworks is making the change, I feel it's not too much to ask for a proper preview.
    You're right, it's not too much to ask for a proper preview - it's just not the time for that yet.

    This was a heads up that the new approach was coming to the TEST channel for anyone that wanted to help us try it out and provide feedback. We wouldn't want to do a broader preview yet because it's still subject to change depending on that feedback. We will share a great look at the new menu to everyone when the concrete is dry prior to the actual release.

    Thanks!
