and and and, when your opponent says "afk a moment, phone." or "Door, brb." you switch two players, add a 12th player to the pitch, and knock down one of his guys!

Here's my "feature" request:
Could we get an extra square or two (or more) on the pitches' borders? Not for game play, but for aesthetic reasons only.
As a "pitch designer," I find it a bit aggravating to "fake" the breadth of a pitch with shadows, or other cheats. Having that extra bit of space would allow for more "personality" in the pitches... like dungeon walls, or some sideline bits/banners/ads, etc.

I wish a button to "shuffle" the dice once a game per player (change the seed) so I can curse Nuffle twice when the luck is against me Smile
Even in real TT (and in NAF tournies) I ask the refree if I can change my dices before I start throwing miniatures all around the room Very Happy

While yes, I think this would be a really cool idea...I'm not sure if I like it. What I mean by that is: I'd rather have time spent on making it completely playable and (almost) bug free before little side additions are made.


just put a button that opens a messagebox writing "New seed generated"

Fake of course Very Happy

Two quick points:
1. Along the idea of customizing pitches, would it be possible to (optionally) play on the home team's chosen pitch?
I guess you'd [the home team] have to commit to the pitch before the game starts with a pop-up window, or some such thing... then the visiting team could download it as play starts (unless they already have that pitch). It'd only take a couple seconds on a broadband connection (which most everyone has nowadays)

2. The Bitmap Brothers aren't gone. Speedball is getting juiced with next-gen gfx for a new release... though I guess you could argue that their days of sprite-based games are long gone.... Smile

Any downloading of opponents icons or rosters should be optional. Some icons are great but others can be massively confusing. While those are cool icons I just wouldnt want to have to use them as reference in game... and some people would use considerably more confusing icons to try and get an advantage Smile

I had this on the Q&A thread but realise that it should be in this feature request thread... many thanks!

Quote:
Because I have moved to playing fumbbl on laptop and not desktop I am now using a touch pad and would LOVE a keyboard short cut to select players.

Also, one thing that annoys me in playing on a laptop with the separate chat window, if I want to chat, I have to click in the chat window and type my chat then when I hit "b" for block or "z" for blitz, even though I have selected the player with the mouse, the key stroke comes up in the chat window!

So, I have to scroll down and click BLOCK with my mouse for the first move and then the short cuts work from there on.

As a chatty guy with a touchpad mouse, this is REALLY annoying.

If it can be fixed, please do. I suggest making keyboard stroke "c" = activate chat window and switching back being another key (not a letter, would have to be a Function key or the TAB key) so that I can keystroke like this:

"b" - block player,
"c" - activates chat, I type "bad luck I killed your wardancer"
"F1" - activates client keyboard short cuts
"<" - scroll to select player
"z" - blitz with selected player

rinse / repeat.

after having tested the new client. I found out that you have to fill in your password everytime. It would be nice to have a feature like in the old client, that remembers your password.

My feature list so far:

- Inform players about finisehd setups, turns, etc. with a little sound maybe.
- The position of the dices on the edges forces you to look there and back to the pitch all the time. Put them directly under the pitch maybe.
- Extra chat window would be helpful

Feature requests so far:

- A sound announcing turnovers and end of different phases would be much desired.
- Being able to change the pitch, not just the player icons.
- Theres a popup window appearing alot that seems very unnecessary at some points. it says "waiting for opponent to choose followup". is that really needed?
- A warning popup when you click the X in the corner of the client.

Feature reqeust after a one game:

- A seperate chat window
- A sound for turnover or ended turn
- Removing of the pop-up that Nighteye mentioned
- Perhaps a replacing of the dices like Zhluhur said
- Option to replace player icons, pitch and weather and stuff like that

Nice that LRB5 is in the testing =)
