Default An Ongoing Narrative

Reading AARs is fun and its always interesting to get peaks at the games, but how cool would it be if people could put together a map as the game pans out, and then post the whole thing after the game ends. The idea would be that people could see how the game progressed without having to piece together forum postings. It could make it a lot more entertaining to track people's progress.


P.S. Out of curiosity, does dom 3 support "replays" in any way? It would be helpful to be able to look at other player's decisions and strategies instead of trying to copy a guide.

Dom3 doesnt have any explicit support for replays, no. You could, in theory store the .trn and .2h files for every turn of an entire game. However, since these files overwrite every turn, you'd need to put them all in seperate directorys in the watcher's savegame directory. Something like "Game_Turn1", "Game_Turn2", etc.
