[Suggestion] Confirm button to learn new skills/talents
I understand and support not having re-spec available but I feel like if simply clicking on the talent/tech tree skill locks you into that selection, that there is a lot of potential for undesired skills/talents being learned via miss-click. I would recommend simply having a "Confirm" button on the bottom right of the menu if a change new skill/talent has been selected.
If this is implemented you could also make it so that left click will add a skill point to the skill/talent and right click would take it away, making it easy to either undo a miss-click or to theorycraft out a progression with a bank of points.

Jim MergedI accidentally clicked a tech tree or talent Item and there was no confirmation. Perhaps we allocate the points then click "Set Tech Tree" or "Set Talents" button to confirm.

FrigusSeconded. I had quite a few times where I regretted immediately after clicking. Sometimes it was changing my mind and others I thought it would unlock the next tier.

Ausmarvin MergedOne wrong click when looking through talents and Blueprints and you can spend a point. Totally screwed up my character as I could not make steel due to an unfortunate click. Playing solo .. so with no reset option in game the character get lockout out of anything steel including guns.
Have a confirmation button to lock in the selection -

KazOr an undo feature - I made the "wrong" selection combination and with beta weekend caps and limited info/my experience about talents, I can't change those selections to better align my character. Cheers

NILLAtheGOON MergedHey guys , just logged into Bw4 and see that all my tech tree and talent points have been reset , thats cool however I did over 80+ hours and built my character stats in a specific way.Now upon trying to respec clicking on each box and having it fully confirmed that way is making it hard to make spec decisions . Would really appreciate it if checking boxes were NOT the assignment confirmation ,instead have players check boxes and then click a "confirm selections" button , that way we can view our spec build and review it without making mistakes , this is how many other games work

Brandon Merged1st issue, you tell us to check out the solo tree however can't get to bottom left of tree.
2nd issue, making rope need a talent but is required for fur gear, and no way to reset talent point to get talent.
There should be a confirm talent instead of you click it you keep it.
so right off the bat i know i cannot complete the mission solo because i wouldn't survive the arctic. -

Jake3DUndo in the Talents/Tech Tree for the last 1-2 items selected due to misclicks or mouse clicking twice by mistake. Another option mentioned by others here is a confirm button for all the Talents/Tech Tree for that page in order to apply.

Rokku MergedWhen spending talent points you should be able to add / remove points at will while browsing and only have it be permanently committed when pressing a commit button or exiting the window.
There are several times where I miss-click on a talent when thinking of what to do and it is immediately applied. Since there are so many branches and paths this will happen to many people. -

S. C. MergedAdd a commit or confirm button to talent point distributing in case the wrong one is accidentally clicked while trying to drag the tree around.

LinnyAs did others, I’ve accidentally clicked on multiple occasion. Would hate to be at last few points and hours to days of effort and trying to get that all important check but accidentally click on the wrong thing. We shouldn’t have to interact so gingerly with a game interface that’s critical to our progression.

azhurabai MergedI've clicked too many times accidentally while browsing through the talent tree/ tech tree.

Steve-O MergedWe need a confirm/apply button for talents. While you're in the talents, with new points you would be able to add and take away points (ones that haven't previously been applied) and nothing will save until you hit the apply/confirm button.
When you add a point to the talent, the outline of the talent will highlight in whatever color, letting you know that you have a pending point in that box. If you take the point out the highlight will go away.
This will solve a problem of assigning points to areas you didn't mean to. It will also allow you to seei if your point will unlock the one below etc. You'll get to tinker around and figure out how you want your new points assigned first and then hit apply when you're ready. -

Samantha MergedHonestly, I wasted 3 blueprint points just today because I mistakenly left clicked when I wanted to drag the menu over. This is a MUST have feature.

ScottYes, this happened to me also. I was trying to figure out how to unlock one of the talents in the tree and mis-clicked on one I didn't want. I guess I'm stuck with it now.

MaYheMJust say no to nag windows. Undo is a better UX.

ShockwaveOr a "Save all" button before leaving the talent screen in general so you can click through a bunch of skills and then take them back if you don't save. That way I can say I want X skill which opens up Y skill... oh wait, It doesn't? I need more skill points to get access? ah, then nah it's not worth it.
You should be able to expend all your points and mess around then click accept to everything you spent before leaving the talents section. -

SpecterXPMaybe a "Hold to accept" instead of instant or confirmation message. This is done when trying to pull a bench back to your inventory and works very well.

Blackadder MergedCan't tell you how many times hovering over a talent tree and misclick using talent point unintentally. I know it not hard to get ruen to get points but $150 for each mistake is wasteful simple qol improvent.

sean maxwellthis would be awesome. I had an issue where I 4 talent points go to a spec I had no intention on placing them in because of a macro I use on another game. This is my fault but it would be a nice QOL feature to have.

TorgothI’d prefer an Undo option with a separate Commit Talent Points option when leaving the Talent Tree.
