Default Re: what about the future?

Ive got a long list of notes for a (never created) blog on Dom3 which would be full of "How can I" questions and their answers. Like switches/config, battle simulator, save/restore, screenshots, uplod battles to youtube, set an alarm, host, notes, notes on map, make a map, make a mod, make an AI (play against myself), change the music, speed up the game, beat the AI, beat Ermor, beat that perfect strategy, bank my money, run a game without leaving my machine up 24/7, run a pbem game, host a blitz game, play xxxxxx nation best, see what the AI is thinking, play on a lan with one copy, play against my bud with us both having the same nation for fairness, run in windows mode, add a title to my gods name, get ALL the titles on my god to ones I like, get a sound or screen change when the turn has processed, how can I get a "take me back into my game" button like other games have, How do I see age, see size, spectate a game like on steam, change sounds my wife hates like elephants and women screams, soften the mouse click, stop the E key from ending my turn, do my MP turn without updating the server, talk voice to people in the game like XBox, set waypoints for my build queues, make maps look hand drawn
and many more.

Alot of my notes are for things that the devs have already fixed such as "how can I have multiple saved gods for the same nation". And now that we have an official wiki I could just do it there. Yeah.. but we all know what Im like about getting things like that done

I never gave up the hope that the waveforms for all these great potential contributions would finally be collapsing into something more material.

And I can honestly say that I really started to wonder what was up with you, HoneyBadger, good to see that you have returned to the forums.
