savegames should include map name or stage name
savegames should include map name or stage name
this could be part of the meta data so that it can be displayed as part of the tooltip which now only displays the time the game was saved
Re: savegames should include map name or stage name
No.
It would be useless and would probably break savegame compatibility.

Re: savegames should include map name or stage name
Every time I save a game, I type the map in the name. (That is unless it is staged game for a bug report, in which case I name it after the issue I'm reporting.)13KukYNexus666 wrote:No. It would be useless.
I think when the user clicks in an empty save game cell on that table, that the naming should be pre-populated similar to how the Unit Designer Screen works when you design a new unit. I would suggest the following:
T3-Some Map Name-hh.mm.ss
So you get the Tier level, the map name, and the elapsed time of the game as the default name, which the user could then edit.
My game handle is Cosmic Raven or Cosmic Raven 68

If it isn't too hard to code, anyways.
