Speeding up battles

[Pocus]

perhaps we can get back on topic... Has Illwinter any kind of priority list? Do you think that one day, the speeding up of battle replay will make a comeback?

Most of dom1 veterans really miss this feature. It dont hampers the casual gamer who dont care if the enemy lamia queen just ceased to cast because she collapsed from excess spell fatigue caused by the frost generated by an enemy ice devil... but its really a pain in the rear to have to wait (not that patiently) that the battle comes to the point where we want to scrutinize all parameters affecting our units.

If you allow me the comparison, its like when you want to debug something, and you dont have the option of making a step by step trace with your compiler, if you prefer...

If the battle replay bug is fixed, and stays fixed, there is nothing stopping the adjustable battle replay speed from being reintroduced.

I'm confused. Wasn't this bug recently found and fixed? Or was that a different replay bug?

One cause, there might be more.

I sure hope it does get fixed, the sooner the better, so I can get this game

by the way, not to frustrate Arryn, but I agree with IW that it would be a bad idea to have a readout of every action in a battle. If you want that you should play pen and paper D&D, IMHO.
