    Save Request Troops Message Function!!!

    I think everyone will face this problem. When you want to change the troop request message, you need to delete the previous message and type. However, the new request message actually is a one that you use usually. It makes people very unconvenient to re-type it. This problem is obvious when changing from farming defense troops request to war attack troops request.

    I suggest to add a function that can save a troop request messages list, such that when I want to change my request troop combination, I just need to choose from my saved list instead of re-type.

    This is a small change to the game, but I think it can make the game more user friendly.

    Firstly, I would just like to say that I have been in your situation and I've solved my way out of it. How I did that was by using my iPad and my phone's keyboard shortcut functions to save a much of messages and enter it really quickly
    like typing "defencereq" turns it into "Defencein order) valkyries, witches, wizards, minions, archers, goblins, barbarians, dragons. NO GIANTS, HEALERS OR BALLOONS.".

    But I think there will always be a few devices that don't have this feature making requesting annoying. So that's why your request is a fair request, but I personally feel that keyboard shortcuts just work brilliantly.

    Potential problems with your idea is mainly just the UI. How would it look like. Would it intrude and cover the screen? Would I be allowed to make endless amounts of requests? I would appreciate if you added some more details.

    Cheers!

    Your solution to this problem is great!!!
    But I think not many people know this method. I think it would be great if I can have a button in messagebox, when I click it, a drop down list will appear for choosing the saved messages.
    Also, for the number of message that can save. I think 4-5 is enough so that we won't have a slide bar occupying the screen.

    The shortcuts method is great, but yes most people don't know about it.
    I use it for loads of things sometimes just for fun, like the Troy and Abed rap from Community. Saves remembering it if you can just shortcut it lol.
