Does it sweep the game beforehand so that it can later view action that is about to start, or is it doing it all live?

Haha now where have I heard that before GBrankdyth68? :D

It's done live. It's more interesting to me that way and far easier to develop! I could imagine riffing off this to generate a better script, but the time shifting would have to do some clever things for different cases.

I need it to watch Lichos doing bombing runs... but I really don't want to tell it about Lichos. Maybe I can analyse the properties of their weapon? :thinking:

I think when there are multiple actions area it could be a bit more committed in showing something (like one/two seconds more). At some points it was switching so fast that it was hard to understand what was happening at any of the areas.

For fun: players "speaking" with their countries accent (although no idea if there is some speech synth that can do that).

FRrankmalric Thanks for feedback. Making it correctly committed to an event is a constant bugbear - it's already quite inclined to stare at a built Singu for a long time, since they have such a high metal cost. However I agree it does need more tuning here.

The TTS is a standard ZK thing that I happen to have turned on, nothing to do with the widget. Accents would be fun though :)

As a disclaimer I did not watch the full replay (maybe one third), but I think a minimum threshold for a change might go a long way. There will always be interesting events, but as a human is hard to grasp the situation that fast. Not even sure how much should the threshold be, maybe for some people it is fine as it is.

No worries. I've tuned it to be a little more sticky to events (should add a second or so on average). I do kind of like the twitchiness but I've probably got some Stockholm syndrome after watching so many replays :) Generally I value it getting to interesting things at all at this point in dev, smoothing out the camera switches is secondary but I hope to improve it. Eventually I can imagine having a twitchy and a sticky preference to pick from, but I'm not sure I'd want a whole bunch of settings.

Really? I admit cracking the one or other joke about national clichees sometimes, but as a full blown feature?

In the end what is more annoying is no differentiation between players. Could be just different voices/tones - think about it same as the icons we get. We did not choose them, they are random and don't mean anything but can still be funny. And "don't mean anything" is tested in real life: I got people that stepped on me by mistake and I did not explode ;).

As long as you don`t get Klocks, windmills, tulips and cheese (oh, and caravans, weed, you name it, Antje was pretty resilient with that) on your icon I guess it is okay. :D

I would look for a solution to differentiate players that is not near useless for a game played at a primarily American time of day.
