Default Re: Wish List

My wishlist mostly is for hosting things for the web-based gameserver project. (side note, anyone want to start a 3rd party wishlist?)

a "start game and quit" switch, even better if it works in text-mode

a --preexec switch for making backups or keeping a list of who didnt do turns

increase the --statfile or add a new switch to export scoreBoards (and maybe a provinces owned list? and maybe all Messages?)

a gameserver-only mode which doesnt load all the librarys/graphical/sound so that you can run more tcpip games on one machine would be nice. But I know that would be a major thing. Probably a Dom3 thing.

commandline switches for the MapEditor things so they can be done in a text-mode do-and-quit script. Also probably a Dom3 thing.
