- Since this INL season is over, and my proposal (of which I received about
- two dozen seconds) for coaches had been deferred to the end of the season,
- I am curious as to whether this is a live topic.
-
- For those of you who missed the original posts, or the follow-up or
- follow-follow-up posts, I proposed that we add a ninth player to INL
- games, called the coach. He would not have a ship, but would be able
- to see the galactic that his team sees, and the tactical of any of his
- team's ships. He would preferably have a menu with each ship number next
- to it in which he would type in messages and switch via the mouse, or
- some other straightforward manner in which to expedite team/individual
- messaging.
-
- Btw, I have neither the experience or time (and time to get experience :)
- to code this for next semester, which is the reason that I am posting
- a proposal and not code, and for that I apologize.
-
- Is *ANYONE* interested in this? Does anyone want to post follow-ups?
