PDA

View Full Version : A very small, focused suggestion.... option to display the current time on screen.

Ok, so we've all been here... I login to play a few quick games before bed, and before I know it, its 2am, and I have to get up for work in the morning.

I currently have no clock near my computer, so I am forced to alt-tab to keep tabs on the time, which is hard to find time for in the frenetic pace of most altitude games!

Civ4 has a little option called "Display Clock" that simply displays the current time in the upper right corner of the screen. I suggest such a thing for Altitude... Or at least, show the current time after you die, on that screen.

=D

but.... then you might stop playing. clearly a bad idea for both the game and for reaching maximum satisfaction in life.

Aw cmon this is a game not a casino.

You can look at it another way, If I get into the habit of staying up too late playing it, I might convince myself to not play at all after a certain hour..

run the game windowed?

Thought of that, but I like full screen, more immersive.

I'd rather block out my messy collection of desktop icons while playing my games. =D

My wife requests this feature (for me.)
