    Ive noticed a few "bugs" and alot of area for improvement with the radial voice command menu (aside from its annoying design).

    -Context sensitive commands need to be accessed more easily
    Make a separate menu that checks stats such as health and ammo (Medic, and Ammo calls) or if facing a wall, calls out for an engineer.

    -Notify nearby units that someone is requesting them
    This is really needed, Empires plays on huge maps and its very likely someone is calling for a medic from the other side of the map, we need to make a temporary waypoint for the nearest Engi's (when Engi's are called) appear on their HUD, this is especially needed for ammo, and make the icon bigger than the rest to make it more noticeable.

    -Bug needs squashing
    When someone calls for ammo they have a little ammo logo appear on them, we like this, but its annoying that it remains even after they get ammo, same with medic calls, the icon still remains after getting healed.

    from what i know, the icons disappear when they are fully supplied or fully healed. so if you don't fully heal them, then icon will stay.

    the icon does dissapear, but i think they need to get full ammo.

    the waypoint idea is very nice.
