#3569 closed enhancement (needsinfo)

Improve the Options Menu

Description (last modified by elexis)

The help text (what pops up when you hover) on ceasefire overlay and FPS limiting is unclear. It defines itself with itself. This should be fixed as soon at the A19 string freeze ends.

We may also want to remove some settings to reduce clutter as well (eg. ceasefire overlay should always be shown, graphics settings should be simplified, etc).

I got that from IRC. The weekend that I created this ticket was a bit of a one-off. When do I need to commit this by to make A19?

Clutter is fixed by having these tabs in the options dialog. Not sure why ceasefire should always be shown. Its ok to have many options as long as they are well defined and well separated. If you want to improve the description of the options, you can upload a patch and state what should be seen there.
