Please make hero health bars more visible or allow auto boost

As an older player I often struggle to keep track of my troops, especially my heroes. I sometimes go to press my hero boost button only to discover they are already dead, especially the king. Some ideas to help:

- make the hero life bars more visible and perhaps flash once they drop to say 50 per cent
- put hero life bars at the bottom of the screen so you can see them even if you lose the heroes
- allow you to set a life level at which you can auto boost - for example automatically boost the king when he gets to say 25 per cent life left

these ideas are simple, helpful and non game changing. I approve.

About the more visible health bar also in the troop selection-bar, great idea. There's often a ton of other troops blocking the heroes and their health bars from sight until the dying flash indicates that it's too late now.

About the auto boost, I dunno, it's pretty circumstantial when they are needed. What if your queen is for example shooting at a barrack outside the base out of defenses' reach and hero power unused but her health is almost at the critical level. She would go to the core next, shoot a storage before moving on to shoot at defenses at which point you would activate the cloak to keep her alive until the defenses are down and she can finish the base off.

Say she destroys the barrack and steps towards the core but on to a G-bomb. She loses a lot of health and automatically uses the boost wasting it, killing herself in vain and costing you the battle. Commence ragequit

Regarding the auto boost I was thinking of making it optional. In the same way that you can set the infernos to single or multi and the xbows to up or down you could set the heroes to no auto boost or to auto boost after x per cent damage.

I would probably not auto boost my queen as she hangs back a bit and it easier to spot but I would probably auto boost my king at say 75 per cent of health gone.

As an added bonus it would be fun to add these auto boost features on defence too!

I thought that way. There's no idea having it any other way but the point remains, you cannot know when you need the boost before attacking so it will very likely go to waste.

On defense, yes please.
