yeah please.
use microseconds too, so its more precise. and 24 hour clock to remove useless space for AM and PM crap.
For example:
[22:46:23:165485] Connecting to server .
where 165485 is microseconds. (165485 = 0.165485 seconds)
much better... might help in error finding too.. if it crashes immediately after some message, its probably the reason why it crashed. (this is where we need the microseconds, seconds arent enough).

There's nothing stopping you writing a patch. Something like timestamps should be 1 or 2 lines maximum, no new code, just a few edits.

Is relative time in miliseconds sufficient? E.g.
Code: Select all
[000124] Player2: says something
[000125] Spring has crashed

i would prefer timestams in 24 hour clock + microseconds, so i can read the chat and know when they were said etc, without calculations.

I see no need for timestamps tbh.

it would be nice to see when the messages were sent, if you wanna know when something happened in the game, you could just read infolog.txt
i dont see a reason why this shouldnt be added, doesnt hurt anyone... just gives more precise info about the played game.
for example you can see how slow your machine is, when you stare the pathing timestamps. (and brag to others "lol it took me just 2.5 seconds!"

)
anyways, i would like to know when the things happened in the game (without watching replay), as i already can see when people sent their messages in lobby chat...

This would actually help with debugging, but I don't want timestamps. I want framestamps.

yeah thats good idea.
But timestamps would be nice too, for reading chat, maybe timestamps for chat only?
Like:
Code: Select all
0036863 [22:41:57] <TradeMark> lol
0036864 spring has crashed.
where the first number is frame number... and of course framestamps and timestamps should be padded like %07d (7 numbers supports 92.6 hours of playing?) and time as [H:i:s]

so how does the infolog format look now?

Can we have the microtimes already, theres no real use for the frames only, since pausing doesnt count frames, etc.
