Just want to say, I am drooling in anticipation of this application.

So it automatically downloads pbw files as they become available and then opens se4 for you. Excellent. Two questions:

-When i finish my turn, will it automatically upload the necessary file? That would be really really sweet.
-Can I configure it to notify me with some sort of on-screen alert (New turn available for game XXX. Play turn? Y/N) instead of automatically opening se4 every time?

Also, please could you code in a module that will monitor the beer-content of my fridge and automatically send a robot down the shops for me to restock different brands according to the mod I'm playing.

There will be an option to have it upload it automaticly, but it won't be set as default, you might want to save the turnfile in between.

To have it open SE4 automaticly you must also set an option, otherwise it will only alert you that a new turn is ready at the PBW site.
there is one option to download before alert and one option to autostart if possible after download.
Unlike the current RTC client it won't be connected to the PBW site, it will check it at an interval you set (minimum 3 minutes).

The alert box will look different depending on what you have choosen in the settings and what game it is alerting for, it can be that it alerts when a turn is ready and you might then have the options: Do nothing, download, download and start SE4, alert me later.

I'll just make the robotmode for my hometown as I don't have the stamina to program maps with beer resalers for the entire world, I'm sorry.
Will fix this to Version 2.0 though!

Now I must decide what it'll do if there are two games to download and autostart possible, it can't start two games as it has to start the companion application game window open when it starts a game and it can only have one of those open at the same time.
Propably it'll wait until the application game window closes and then start the next if the option to autostart downlaoded games is set.
