SGK7019 Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Hello everyone, An idea came to my mind recently, when I had finished a battle. I wanted to replay from a certain point after. I don't think this is in the game, and my idea is that through replays, we could select an option "Play from here/Rewind (Or something similiar)". This is not a demand, it's rather a low-profile suggestion for the near or even far future if you are too busy with other stuff. What is your opinion on this, everybody? I would love to know!

feneur Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 It's certainly something that would be nice to have, it's not to easy to implement though, so it might take a while before it happens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGK7019 Posted November 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Yeah, I imagine. That's exactly the reason I said I do not demand this in any way. When you wish so, it would be something nice indeed. Thank you for replying, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC (naval supremacist) Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 The replays are recorded in text files embedding all the movements done by players . To make it possible, each game minute should be written as well in the file and the replay will offer a command button to move forward or backward to any of those minutes.

elexis Posted November 14, 2016 Report Share Posted November 14, 2016 The game time is encoded too, every turn takes 500ms, so if the replay has 2000 turns, it will be 1000 seconds long, which allows replaying the games in the first place. But in order to rewind we also need a lot of memory so that we can do it quickly without waiting 30minutes to compute. Once the basics of the feature are implemented, we can make it a bit smarter, for example to add savepoints 10 seconds before someone was defeated as that might be a more interesting event.
