HYPE the redesign of OpenRA's statistics tab.
Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2015 12:01 am
For a while now a ticket has been open on Github on adding an improved statistics bar for spectators and replays:
https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/5121
The thought of having this feature available is really exciting and I've been craving it since Rider brought on the idea. This design of easy-accessed live info would add another dimension to watching replays and bring new life into casting and spectating. Most matches are team games with a lot of players and it's almost impossible to anticipate players' thoughts and strategies without knowing what exactly they're building and how well they're doing in misc. numbers.
If you can, please comment, discuss and spread some hype about this to give moral support to whomever is looking to work on it. If you want to support directly, if only a little, consider using Bountysource to specifically support the above issue! Not only does it add quality to OpenRA but it would also indirectly support casting. I will also match all contributions made through Bountysource up to $200 by 20 November! This is also a good time to polish the game in this fashion; recently, FiveAces has gained support of gamereplays.org's staff in organizing his casts and they plan to feature his coverage of future tournaments on their front page. Anyone interested in casting, including myself, would be inclined to commit more time to quality VODs with better observer tools.
So again, if you can, please hype and support this feature any way you can. It would benefit everyone and encourage more quality exposure on the tubes.

UPDATE: The entire statistics tab is looking to get a complete overhaul and a lot of progress been done with the production tab. Still, a lot of work to be done to implement it across all the mods. Keep encouraging the process!
