Unit Actions replay needs some rethinking/improvements (fun vs usability)

<< < (2/2)

SRombauts:
Now x4000 is asking for "Thoughts of others?" on one of those issues:
http://www.arcengames.com/mantisbt/view.php?id=11372: [UI] Unit Actions "Auto Start Replay" option

Mick:
Hmm, I'm a bit ambivalent about that particular feature. I might use it if it's available, but I wouldn't really miss it if it wasn't.

I think if it is implemented, it should be a toggle under the settings and NOT something that appears under the play buttons. I think there are too many toggles there already.

Yes, exactly!
That is why I propose that this new feature"could be bind to the "Play All" "option", thus activated when it is selected.

That is the more classic way of handling this kind of issue, but it certainly can become a default (not to mention Civ5 for instance;)

Personally, I think it is an important enough feature to warrant space on the main playback menu. I would have this switched on for 90% of the time, but then I'd still like to break out of it occasionally to tweak my settings, possibly by hitting space bar during a movement phase. If the option was relegated to the main settings it wouldn't be as easy to break out of and then switch back on again. I would be very disappointed if this feature wasn't implemented, in at least some form, though.
