Feature request: show running time when joining battle

Post by hoijui »

when entering a battle of a running game in the lobby, Springie shows the run-time of the current game, SPADS not (at least it does not happen for the common autohosts that use SPADS).
I think this is pretty useful info, especially since we have mid-join support. I generally do not join games that are running for longer then 10min, but on SPADS i always have to type !status to get that info.
Could you possibly show this by default?

100% Ack. Would be very useful to have that info by default.

I added the possibility to show running time in welcome messages (using token "%t") in SPADS 0.9.9f (only in "unstable" release for now).
I also changed default welcome message to use it, but it won't alter all already installed SPADS instances.
