New OOTP Background Service/System Tray
Hello!
I think it would be fantastic to have a low overhead system tray background service we can leave running that is authenticated to the ootp servers and retrieving updated status on our tournaments and current PPs (and other helpful information). This would help us stay connected when we don't want to be running the entire game, which is more resource heavy. Other ideas:
- Display a notification when a tournament or league game has been completed. Options could be something like "See Results", "Watch Replay", "Close", and the game could launch and redirect to either the box score, replay start, or close the notification. Can turn on or off for each tournament/league.
- Could use a right-click menu navigation to show most recent 10-15 or whatever auction house transactions
- Could set the background service to automatically check for and download online league files (not just PT) (could set for each league independently) - Could then pop up a notification when the user launches the league notifying them of a new league file and asking if they want to update (allows the user to not run update if they don't want, but the files will be available if they want to).
- Automatically check for and download patches, then ask user if they want to update.
- Other push notifications as desired (with options to disable) including newly added cards, new features, PP discounts/sales, etc.
