1.7.2 Suggestions
Re: 1.7.2 Suggestions
I have a suggestion for the recording autosave feature: can you change it in a way that makes it possible to directly enter a filename for the autosaved recording? Maybe a small button that brings up the "rename last recording"-dialog? Usually I save a recording because of some interesting event, but when every film is saved in a row of games its time consuming to go back and find out the good ones. I always wondered why it is not possible to rename the film even when saving it manually.
Re: 1.7.2 Suggestions
The reason, I think, is the code can't easily handle the case when a dialog is open but the game is restarted by the host. So bringing up a dialog is problematic.
A more feasible solution would be to add an extra text field to that dialog that lets you enter the name you want to use, then when you hit Save it will use that name (either rename the film saved already or save the film under that specified name). But such a change would have to wait for 1.8, since 1.7.2 is feature complete and the only changes that will go in 1.7.2 are bug fixes for bugs introduced in 1.7.2 or 1.7.1.
