Replay Button?

Post by EllieK »

After the game ends, how about a replay button that replays the race at quick pace? No need to see cards or click a turn by turn arrow, just a 'one click' replay. After playing the race, you can then watch the race!

I'm not sure if that's possible. I think replay functionally is built into the main BGA structure, and not changeable for individual games. Someone with dev experience on here can probably say more, though.

It would be nice but I would indeed be very surprised if it was possible.

That's definitively not an easy task since replays are just replays : they start from initial position and play notifications one by one.
So this would mean tweaking the replay mode to add an extra button that would just skip all notifications about drawing cards and others related notifs to keep only the one about moving the car or something like that.
Probably not impossible, but a lot of hacking through BGA framework and a bunch of time, so it's very unlikely to happen.

+ 1 for 3D animated race replay, with crowd roar on the corners and overtakes!!!

I'll only add that if someone ever does it, they should implement it for other racing games as well. That would be sick to watch! :)

That would be awesome. The game already has a very nice implementation with how the cars are moving and the lines. A fluent replay of the race would be really amazing.
