Swap formations

It would be great if we could swap formations within one single tactic. There is an option which allows us to reset the one or both alternative formations back to the starting formation and another which allows us to copy one of the alternative formations to the starting formation, but there should also be possible to interchange formations. I know there is an add-on for desktop browsers, but people play this game and set their tactics on other devices as well. If I'd like to interchange formations within a tactic on e.g. my phone I have to save the XML codes and swap back and forth. That shouldn't be necessary, and I guess I'm not alone getting annoyed by the lacking of this feature.It would be great if we could swap formations within one single tactic.

And also the opportunity to mirror the formation. Just a simple button that allows you to mirror through the centre of the field. If you have a formation with e.g. a winger on one side it simply let you play with the winger on the opposite side.And also the opportunity to mirror the formation.

That feature is actually available; with MZ chrome match viewer extension: [img]https://i.imgur.com/2QeH1Ng.png[/img] (I don't use that extension, I just forward the image)

I know, my friend, and I do also use it when I’m at home. I actually mentioned it in my opening post by accidentally calling it an add-on, and it was also my inspiration for the thread [:)] But it doesn’t help me when I’m at the bus, at school or anywhere else where I don’t have my Mac available. But what I want is to integrate these features in the web page.I know, my friend, and I do also use it when I’m at home.

Yep. I knew this answer will come. And I am on same boat with you - I don't install extensions to my browser. I find it would be good update (well, not SO important), it saves some time, is comfortable and makes tactics countering a bit harder ("paranoid defender" will do just randomly fast clicks before match on "Mirroring" like flipping a coin, to play with luck). Here is one con for MZ -- if tactics will be flipped like that, instant matches (scoutings) would lose bit of popularity, they are not that reliable for win. But lets be honest: 1) that feature is available, anyways. Yes, not in game, is with extension.. 2) I used instant matches just to test (learnt SIM's logic) my-own formation. I picked random stronger team from my league. Then I tried like 10 games to find the best formation (which brought best score 1+n times) and I went to battle with strength of my "army", not with opponent's.Yep. I knew this answer will come.

Honestly it is important IMO. We have a limited amount of tactics slots, and if you compete in senior and all UXX tournaments, you can only have 4-5 different tactics for each age group. If you use two of the slots with one tactics and the same just mirrored, you've already "wasted" two slots. [/quote] Yes it does. If you have your desktop device available, but people doesn't only use their desktop device in 2019. Most of the time I spend on this game, I actually do through my cell phone or tablet. This feature isn't available unless I'm home with my desktop device.
