Warning on Name change if game in progress #74

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
There should be a warning if you either enter settings or go to change the
name if you have a game in progress. Entering Settings would probably be
easier to implement, but changing the name would have fewer false positives.

An alternative would be to rename the save file when the name changes

There is some code that uses the name afaik, should use the iphone user name 
instead
of the player's name.

What are the symptoms? You start a new game without any comment?

Right now, if I change my name from Mobile User, it just starts a new game.  If 
I
change my name back, I get my game back.

It should either rename the save so you don't 'lose' the game, or it should 
warn you
that you have a game in progress.

Of course, this could be taken advantage of and expanded so that you can have
multiple concurrent games under different names.

fixed in r186

Was able to change my name without disturbing the current game.
Simulated a crash and was able to recover my last save.
