Hi Elissa, really enjoying this game! However, I have a couple FRs to facilitate using it on my BBS. One of which we've already discussed a bit :)
1 - Screen pausing. I can't use this on my BBS until some sort of screen pausing implementation is done. Most BBSes default to a 24 line screenmode. If tty geometry detection is tough, would it be possible to have a flag at runtime to force a screen geometry and introduce pauses accordingly?
2 - A reset feature. In other words, remove all players from the game and force everyone to start from scratch.
Thanks!
Hi Elissa! Most of my telnet clients connect using an 80x24 screen geometry. Without any sort of automatic pausing, users will have to use their scrollback buffers. This is fine in most traditional style terminal emulators but in a lot of BBS specific telnet/ssh clients it's kind of unnatural/a pain in the neck. It's not the typical user experience one would expect on a BBS and I expect a lot of users would not even realize they've missed anything as they would be used to seeing everything in a single 80x24 screen.
Thanks for your reply!
