Game log doesn't show unsuccessful attacks. Like if yellow had a 9 and it got knocked to a 3. So when people complain about secret alliances and stuff, attempted attacks don't show up.

I like the idea, but it sounds like it would be a huge load on the server.

It'd be possible to parse the combat log and recreate the game(minus 100% accuracy on the number of armies).
Sounds like a good community contributed mod. *wink*

New suggestion topic "Replay Button" started on 20 June 08 by gordito.
Merged with existing suggestion topic "Log 2.0 and Replays" started on 14 June 08 by Coleman.

"Replay Button" overlaps entirely with the suggestions in "Log 2.0 and Replays".

We already have the "Handy Game History" script - although I am unsure if it still works correctly at present...

However - once Game Log 2.0 comes out - then a full replay system would be available as an add-on script...

Which would be awesome!!

Concise description:

Number of men in fog of war

Specifics:

Just got done playing a FOW game in Pearl Harbor. When I played my last set, one opponent had 2 territs left. As I frantically searched for him/her, I was not sure I would even have enough to win their cards. When FOW is lifted, is there any way to post the number of armies left if your opponents have say, under 3 Territs.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

Not sure, just for informational purposes only I guess.

I'm not sure what you're asking..

Do you want to have the number of units at a previous time? Or to see what the map looks like at the end of the game (click "Reload the Game")

When I click reload game, I want to know how many armies were on the territs - that's all

The number of armies on each territory changes each turn (at least on some territories it does)

You may, however, be interested in Game Replay

Just trying to clarify blockhead, you want to know how many armies were on the territs when?

And regarding this "Reload The Game" link (which blakebowling introduced to the discussion) ... where is it? I've visited games - both active and finished and can't see such a link. I guess I'm missing something?

You get this link immediately after the game has finished - it refreshes the log to show you all the attacks that happened...

Once you leave that game - you won't ever get the ?'d logs again.

thanks blake - that looks like exactly what i asked for

by **bigreuben** on Fri Oct 03, 2008 10:42 am

I think it's most important for the games that had fog on, after the game is over and the fog is on the log it's still a long way to fully understand what went on and how... this especially hard on leaving a rating because you don't know if the player played smart or stupid...

I think it would be neat to see our games replayed in flash animation turn by turn. They would be like movies where you could see the colored pieces expand and contract across the maps. It would help players to get what is going on during games. This could be included as a member benefit. :idea:
