"Live" Replays #7

Closed Mezzle closed 10 years ago

Mezzle commented 10 years ago

Hey, so - my C# isn't particularly good, but looking @ the code for the replay stuff - this could be quite simple to hook into a web-service that'd take input from both scrolls players as it's recording (X played card Y message) and then relay it to another PC (or set of PCs). This would then allow for "live" watching of games. This could be expanded to allow anyone to watch the games as they happen.

I thought I'd put this forward as an idea as to start a discussion for how to do this.

Yea, it 'should' be pretty easy. I think @levela also thought about implementing that.

On the other hand there was already some 'spectating'-stuff spotted on the test server, so i'm unsure if its worth investing time into this when it will become obsolete soon.

It would indeed be very easy. But the spectator code from mojang is already nearly done in code as it looks and for starting to spectate a game at any point you would need to implement a fast rewind/forward function at first, which is much more difficult. with this in mind it is not really worth it. kbasten and I already thought about that some time ago and we came to the conclusion, that we will not implement it. if you want to feel free to start with my code as long as you give credit.
