small lobby improvement

Postby laPPen » 20 Jun 2013, 13:17

Hey guys.

I was just wondering if it would be possible to add a "view replays from online vault" option that appears with the menu that opens up when you rightclick on a players name in the chatroom.
(Right under the view live replay option).
Its propably nothing we need desperatly at the moment, but it would be a nice little improvement i think.

That would be very nice because now the Replay vault is really broken. Just try to search some players or maps, you wont find a (relevant) thing.

I think there is some auto delete feature on the vault. It doesn't keep replays indefinitely.

yeah, right clicking a players username in the lobby and showing like the last 10 replays, sounds much better than manual searching the vault which doesn't always work.

searching "Seton" or "Clutch" comes up with all other versions EXCEPT the actual official "Seton's Clutch" map.
searching a playername like "Voodoo" only comes up with "KingVoodoo" replays.
there are probably others too.

If not, im sure its not too much problem to fix these small issues.

As I learned, for official maps you have to search for the correct name, which should be something like "scmp009" (or similar). Just get a replay of yourself on the map and look up the map name in the text of your local replay file.

One suggestion I have for the replay vault relating purely to comfort and lazyness is to enable to search directly by pressing Enter after typing a player name. Usual i forget i have to click and wait while nothing happens :)

Sounds like a good idea and not too much work to implement. I'll have a look at it...
