Please allow a game to be reset to before the game was started.
The game master may have the issue where the game setup is incomplete, a description needing change, forgot the sort ordering (as in the lastest game started); would they wish they could turn it back? I do.
(By the way, the link preview is perfect!)
I have had an errant mod in my game that bugs the map, or forgot a mod. Reset would have been king.
Another time, the game was patched and we had to start a new game. The game master should be able to reset the game no matter how far the turns have gone.
There are so many different reasons where a reset would be helpful.
@Valamas - A month or two ago I changed things so you could edit pretty much all settings before submitting the initial turn, and I just made a change so you can edit turn order before the initial turn. Is there anything else that needs to be done here? Do you still want the ability to totally reset a game no matter what turn it’s on?
Looking forward to checking out the new method soon. I have a game in design but time is swamped atm.
If that is low hanging fruit, yes please. I have been involved in many games where everyone agrees for one reason or another that we have to start again. We then all shuffle on to another game. I had a couple of games recently where we did this as a 3rd restart.
OK, just put out a new build with support for this. There’s two options, “restart” to reset a recently started game, and “clone” to create a copy of a game for a rematch or something.
Was your game always random only? Yeah, I think it does make sense to reset the civs to random on restart if the game is random only, I’ll make that change, thanks!
