Post by Corvus08 »

Hello all,

My suggestion is about multiplayers interface ;
i think there is possible upgrades about observers interface ;
- When i observe for a game, i regret sometime to can't stop the replay ; But, anyway, i've got a solution for that, i open the menu, it's like a pause ; Well, it's not clean, but it's ok.
- When i'm disconnected in a game, i reconnect, and want to go the fastest possible to the last turn i quit ;
But very often, in this case, i forget to check "jump move" in the interface of multiplayers, before launching the replay :

(sorry, it's the french version, but i hope everybody see what i mean)

So i imaginate a basic interface, based on the same interface wich used for read the "films* files" ("*movies" maybe in English version ?).

Maybe my request has been already submitted, or it's a stupid request, or it risk to overload a bit the interface, or technicaly hard,etc., but i try to ask :)

Thx for feedback wesnoth guy's

you can already click on the menu->preferances->general->accelerate speed. the max is 16x, which is basically what the quick replay option does. you can also skip ai moves to speed it up if there is an ai playing.

As far as I know, this is where nearly all cultism comes from in English.
It is ok to correct me if my English is too bad.

Actually, the French AND the English both have the words imported from Latin.
But people tend to forget the importance of Latin all the time.

One, who will teach Latin from August on... ;)
