This specification was automatically generated from a feature request imported into Ares's LaunchPad bugtracker. If you are interested in fleshing out this feature, please update this page.
While I know the situation about feature requests and current schedule, I'd like to suggest several UI improvements for eventual development in the further future.
Since Generals, whenever you hover over a unit/building/any other object in your sidebar you will not only receive information about it's cost and name but basic information about what that thing is, what it can do, what are it's requirements and what it's effective against etc.
This could be very useful in Yuri's Revenge as well, because modders would be able to provide basic info about new objects (especially in TCs) available through hovering over object cameo in the sidebar.
However, this would require two things: additional tag similar to UIName=, possibly Desc= which would appear either instead of UIName when hovering over the cameo in sidebar or under the UIName in the same situation.
Currently - only UIName can be modified and will appear when hovering over cameo and when cursor is placed on the object on the battlefield.
Also, when you try to add more lines to UIName string entry game results in a crash when you hover over the cameo with such entry. Attached link to a debug report.
