Is there a way to "Watch Games"

JimmyWint · 04-23-2004, 03:44 PM

Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to watch a game play out as opposed to hitting continue all of the time. I manage all of my teams games, but when there is a good game or if a player has a high hitting streak or some milestone coming I like to watch the game unfold.

If there is no way to do so currently, is there anyone else that would like to possibly see this feature added?

Thanks
Jim

you can currently watch a game by starting it and setting both teams as computer controled...you will still have to hit continue though, but don't control either team...

I do that, but it still makes me hit continue between plays. I guess I should have asked if there is a way to watch a game without it pausing between plays.

Thanks
Jim

No way to do what you want right now. However, people have gotten around this in the past by starting the game and pressing the '1' key a few dozen times. Then, they watch the game until the keyboard buffer runs out of ones and repeat the process. I don't even know if this will work with v6.

Sometimes I'm busy doing paperwork and can't get my hands on the keyboard ... it would be nice if the game would play itself automatically without any intervention whatsoever.

scefalu, I am going to try your idea when I get home from work tonight. I wonder is this is something that could be addressed in a patch if enough people want it? Auto Play was the term I was looking for...Thanks Spanky

Get one of those birds like Homer Simpson had, and it can keep pushing the button for you.

It'll triple your productivity.

Well, here's a product I bought last year that allows you to watch games. www.valissoft.com

It is called an autoclicker...you set the place you want it to click, how often you want it to click and away you go.

thats what I do when I watch other games.... just hold it down for awhile if itll let you then you should be set for a decent amount of times, but generally I hit it over and over and over

I used to have an autoclicker called (I think) RTVReco. I should try and find it again. It was freeware if I recall too.
