looking at myself

here is an idea..

you know when you watch a replay and your thinking.. hey wouldnt it be cool if i could join this fight back from the start as a new player and then play the same battle..

well...

would it be possible to play vs yourself in and endless ffa? that you keep spawning as a new com.. and the engine disregards orders for units that dont exist because you killed them? ie. a desynced game..

sort of like when you race vs ghosts on racing games.

so:

game 1 you send 100 fleas..
game 2 you kill the 100 fleas and the game then disregards all future orders for those fleas to move..

i think maybe the engine would need a rework?

yes huge numbers of orders would need to be ignored

it could get confusing lol

after joining 20 times you might have to rember things like oh yeah i nuke north at min 20 so i need anti

whhhat! how can i do this??.. i want to make a 20 player null ai game and replay it 20 times each time ill take a new comander =D

it works.. this is possible.. im now going to play a 4 vs 4 of myself and see who wins.

ill post the replay here

hmm it didnt quite work.. using cheats then playing a game winning then disable cheats to make a replay..
but then in the replay when i took the oposite team it started being really strange.. i think this will only work using human players and not ai.. as when i took the ai players they tried to play while i was playing.. and my opponent me.. didnt use the factory once i took control of the other team.

but the issue that sinks the whole ship is that replays dont create replays even when you win them again
