What is this "game log" you speak of?

The game log is the box under the map that says who attacked who and when people fortifyed and stuff. Game log 2.0 is the new version on the *to do* list. It will tell you more information like who attacked even if they didnt conquer any territorys and how many armies were lost. Once this happens it will be very easy to replay a game. You could find the specifics on the to do list on the top of this fourm.

Ahh, THAT game log... sorry, I was thinking that perhaps you were referring to some tool or something.

Yeah, if the starting armies were and territories were stated in the game log it would be easy to replay it with some sort of Javascript front end... like through a greasemonkey script.... :D

Suggestion: Game Replay

Postby yearrgh on Sun Jul 01, 2007 10:44 pm

<Subject>:

* A replay button added to finished games so you can see the action on the map, instead of trying to figure it out from the game log.


<Body>:

* Suggestion Idea:

Whenever I used to play Civilization, after the game I enjoyed watching the ebb and flow of power on the map using the replay feature. It would be interesting to add a similar function to Conquer Club.

* Specifics:

A 'Replay' button is added below the final map where the 'Begin Turn' button goes. You click it and you browser automatically goes through the game as according to the game log. Nice features would include a speed setting, as well as pause, rewind, and fast-forward buttons.

* Why it is needed:

It will enable other players to see what happened in a game, rather than try to figure it out from the game log. Players can use it to reconsider strategy, figure out where things went wrong or right, or brag to each other.

* Priority** (1-5):

3. Not needed urgently, but it would be a great enhancement, IMHO.

Check out the thread for Game Log 2.0 on the To-Do List. Once that gets implemented, it will be possible to write a script that can play the game back as a movie.

Ah. I figured someone would have thought of this, but I didn't see that one when I looked/searched.

Replay / Review Games

Postby Heinyken on Sun Sep 16, 2007 2:54 pm

I looked through the topics to see if someone else had posted this, and through the To-Do List, and didn't find it in either, so I apologize in advance if this has already been brought up and/or vetoed.

What would it take to have some sort of option that could re-play, turn-by-turn, what happened throughout a game. It could be an option available only after a game ended, or maybe -- if possible -- while still active (so that a person could see what happened over the last Round).

Basically what I'm envisioning is a layout much like the one which already exists. It could have a "Next" button and could somehow read what each player did, blow-by-blow and illustrate it as the person clicked "Next" or "Play".

Does this make sense? I would like this so that I could analyze my own plays, and also the plays of other, more successful players. I think this could make for an interesting option.

Great job on the site, on the additions and everything else, this is a great idea and an awesome product! Thanks for your hard work!

With 'Game Log 2.0', it will be possible for people to make programs to replay games and specific turns. Game Log 2.0 will also have a more detailed analysis of the turn in text also. Check it out, on the To-Do list.

Excellent, I thought it had probably been brought up before. I'm glad to hear that about 2.0.

Instant replay of finished game

Postby Tank1501 on Fri Dec 21, 2007 12:57 pm

I didn't see this anywhere on the list, but it would be really neat if after a game was over you could hit a button and see kind of an "instant replay" of the whole game. It would show the opening map, then cycle through and show the changes in armies & countries for each person's turn (maybe 5 seconds per turn, or allow user to choose 5, 10, 20 seconds). I think this would be a helpful strategy tool that would allow users to see what kind of strategy others are using to take over boards.

What do you think?

I think that it would be really cool but I'm afraid that it's too much work for Lack, this option isn't that important and it would take a lot of resources (though I don't know, I'm not familiar with this kind of stuff).
