remove the "Playing" icon in FOW games when someone plays

Postby castudil on Tue Jun 10, 2008 5:44 pm

Concise description:
  • remove the "Playing" icon in FOW games when someone plays

Specifics:
  • When someone is looking at the game list, one can realize when other are playing, in FOW from my perspective this is undesirable., this enhancement will make more difficult to the opponents to see how other plays
  • there are players who wait until opponents are offline in FOW games, so them cannot see their movement of troops. hiding the PLAYING status can play a strategic enhancement to these practices.
  • in this sense in FOW games players should only see the STOP icon (the red square) and the READY icon (the green circle)

But if you are watching the turn progress, you can pick up more information than looking at the log retroactively. Like you can know that they deployed the 7 on the territory next to you an lost 6 to your 1, or something like that.

sometimes with my team we share information when we see other playing, for example where the guys have deployed or if they are preparing threats. I almost sure other teams do the same stuff, if not they should do!

but the thing is that this is an opportunism, when by casuality you see the "playing" icon I just saw it 2 minutes ago and I have obtained useful info
