Reconnect Button

Post by Mav »

Lobbies are missing what we all want: a reconnect button.

AFAIK, all the lobby does is call spring.exe with script.txt as the argument when it connects. If you fail to connect the first time, you have to go and do this manually. It's fine for me, but I'm tired of telling n00bs to "drag script.txt onto spring.exe" every time they fail to connect.

Reconnect button please?

Spring Lobby refuses to work on my computer. I've tried it many a time, with no result.

TASClient works so I use it.

Sorry for the ignorant post. Hopefully sat adds it to TAS soon.

If you're under windows or any common distribution of linux, the problem is probably on your end.

Probably so, but I genuinely prefer the way TAS organizes everything. I had SL working at some point and I didn't find that it had anything that makes me want to switch. I've not had a connection to a game fail in the current release of Spring, so the lack of the reconnect button doesn't affect me.

Merry Christmas all.

but if the lobby has a button for it, it will be a great benefit (also easy to use or maybe some kind of auto-reconnect)

couldn't get rid of the dos screen. But for windows users, having everything installed at the default place, this should work fine as well :)
