A question, a suggestion and a typo

from Offworld Forums

Question: Do replays currently work?  I see the option on the main menu, but can't figure out how to record or access them.

Suggestion: When a player unpauses, can the game start up again at the last-used speed... so if you are on slow and pause, it'll go back to slow when you re-start? Currently unpause always goes back to normal speed.

Typo: When you've built an Engineering Lab, and you mouse over of the icon at the top of the screen for that lab, the tooltip says "If you already have a Engineering Lab selected.." That should be "an Engineering Lab .... " Same typo appears in tooltip for Offworld Market.

Replays do work, at least for me, however it saves only the last replay, and only when you check the replay box when starting out the game.

Hey Tylertoo,

The "an" problems are a problem with our text parsing system. We dynamically create those strings so that modders (and we) can change the name of the building without creating a whole new tooltip. It'll be a while, but we'll get a system together that should address the "a" and "an" correctly.

I fixed the pause/unpause speed issues. They should be in the next version.

Thank you!

Cool, thanks for the explanation.  Sorry to be so anal; its the editor in me.
