Im sure this will cause some discussion. Remember that if this degenerates into name calling and slander, the whole thread may disappear.

This is my list of things that people have asked Illwinter or Shrapnel to do, which I feel can be scratched off (or at least put behind other considerations). Nothing is listed here because it would be too much work. This is a list of things that are already done by Users, but maybe not in as friendly or immeadiate a manner as some would like. That makes the request for these move from "do this" to "do this better" which I think means it can wait abit.

Some are 3rd party add-ons. Others are done by making creative use of the command_line switches and some scripting, and some are being provided by Users in a way which is better than we are likely to see officially for awhile. Most of these have already been discussed on this forum so please at least try the "search" button in the upper right of the screen before asking in this thread how these are done.

1) A button to make screen shots, or screen saves.

2) save a battle as an uploadable and replayable movie file.

3) an option to play my own music, or replace the music being played.

4) multiple autosaves for games.

5) multiple game saves where I can name them and restore them.

6) saving multiple god files.

7) a timer alarm so I dont miss work.

8) have it make a sound when hosting is done cause my bud takes forever to do his turn.

9) Battle Simulator.

10) multiple directory support for things like maps and mods.

11) play over a lan with one CD.

12) random map generator.

13) random opponents.

14) tutorial.

15) better documentation.

16) a game-finder player-matchup site.

17) anonymous upload site where I can send screen shots and upload the mods/maps I do.

18) support chat area.

19) cheat codes.

20) reverse the order of the web-board postings.

LET THE FLAM.... I mean, LET THE GAMES BEGIN
