All GM Game Control

Larryk007 · 02-06-2025, 11:37 AM

I know the game is played as GM of one team, but I play as GM of all teams, just a better way for me. But the game is set up for the one GM only.
If we could change to an option for ALL GM mode that would be great.

Two of my issues with the way ALL GM mode is "short lists" and "free agency" since all those great OOTP tools are combined into on GM, the current one you are using.

Just a thought for something in the future. The way I play is fine, but this was an opportunity to see with there is more ideas like this.

You could create a separate human GM for each team.

I have never done that, but it's a cool idea....Have you tried it? Upsides and downsides?

I've not tried it, but did just create a 2nd one to see how well it would work.

It is 4 clicks to change GM's, which might get annoying depending on your workflow. But I don't see why it wouldn't work, in general, if you are wanting to control all of the teams and keep your various lists team specific.

Yeah, I just tried it too, it works, but it's a too much to move around quickly. Maybe OOTP will read this and add something cool in OOTP26!
