I have a website running now, so I will upload a specification I have written regarding improved battle reports. I will post the link here when it is uploaded.

I am not good enough at scripting to know if my ideas are possible, but I pretty sure they are a big improvement.

good ideas:
Code:
             New BR
             Mr Spock
Mouse-over functions to be considered
Goal: An attractive and educative

             BattleReport
 More visualization
 Step-by-step, not grouped
 Start/Stop/Pause
 Set speed while running
 ”Real-Time” score adjustment
 Optional: mouse-over shows the
 corresponding info manual (ships for
 instance)

             User want
All users want a cool interface
New users want to understand what is
happening
Experienced users want to see in detail
how the strategy worked

                 Solution
Graphical interface
Player 1 left side, Player 2 right side
Controls along bottom edge
Scores and battle order info along top edge
c1,c2,c3,c4 visible
Number of and type of each ship/building
Set speed and start
First ship fires/activates, effects are
visualized
Next ship fies/activates etc. Pause function

             Advantages
New players get into the game faster
Coolness factor of ST rises
Even experienced players will understand
the battle engine better

             Fördelar
Sammanfatta det speciella och fördelaktiga
med de presenterade nyheterna

            Needed info
We need a direct feed from the battle
engine, not the grouped BR we have today.
I don't know how to do this, we need
someone to help us.
We need a graphics guy (senor?)
We need a specification (spock?)
We need a script programmer (same guy
who helped us with battle engine?)
what does this mean?
Code:
Fördelar
Sammanfatta det speciella och fördelaktiga
med de presenterade nyheterna

there are also a lot of other ideas here:
battle visualisation

)you get the detailed BR info there)
