Default Re: Longest Single Player Game ??

My brother-in-law had some games with AI that had battles where both of them were using thousands of troops. I sure wish I had saved some of them. Id love to do a "fly-over" camera recording of one of those battles.

You know that Johan and Kristoffer gave up two of their debug switches. I dont think they are in the command_line file yet but...

--allbutermor can be used to quick start a game with all but Ermor

--superhost is a switch to force hosting even if turns havent been done and to continue doing it even if no humans are left in the game.

So you could setup a game to loop hosting. Along with --scoredump you will be able to keep an eye on how the game progresses. You can also use map commands to try and setup your human-player to survive to the end of the game so you can peek in.
