I've been working on the "Road Rage" module a bit more, and was looking last night for a way to allow a user to save and load a private windows once a game has started. Is that possible? I looked all through the VASSAL editor, and even the online documentation <gasp!> but couldn't find anything like that. For example, in Road Rage each player has to "build" their vehicle on a private windows once the game starts, which can take a bit of time. It would be nice if people could pre-create their vehicles in VASSAL offline, save them, and load them once the game starts.
Alternately, I thought of creating several different "stock" vehicles and allowing each player to select one to be displayed in their private window, but I'm not sure if that's even possible, and it would severly restrict the fun and flexibility of designing your own vehicle -- which is half the fun of Car Wars^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Road Rage. :) Ultimately I'd love to be able to allow players to import a .PNG or .GIF of their own, say something exported from an Excel spreadsheet that is used to design the vehicle. But for now even just being able to save and later load then using VASSAL would be great. Cheers, Steven ------------------------ Yahoo!
