Navigating the menus on reflex sounds like a pretty tough thing to do to me, but if you have some sketch of screenshot of the interface I could make some suggestions. Thanks. | |

I'm not sure about context sensitivity; the player's going to be navigating the menus on reflex by fifteen minutes in, so moving things around is only going to make things worse, won't it? | |
