Hey Ralph:
I find that sometimes after I get up from my nap and hit the computer that I'm in the middle of a TOAW session and don't remember which round of combat I'm on and that could be helpful I find. So I'm asking if, instead of the name of the scenario in the Caption we could have the name of the file that got loaded. I save my "Directive 21" session frequently and have lots of files and which round I'm currently on is in the filename and if I could see the filename in the Caption it would help me. Anybody else see the significance of what I'm asking? Can this be done easily? Maybe a future change?

Larry,
You have tried the obvious step of mousing over the 'circle of stars' right? If you do, the line at the bottom of the screen will tell you how much combat is planned and how much of the turn has gone by.[8D]

I can look at adding the date and round to the title bar too.

...how much of the turn has gone by....

Yeah, it's great at telling me how much of the turn has gone by but it doesn't give me a hint at what round I'm on. And that's what I need to know. Lots of times I have 20% of a turn left when I'm on round six. And besides, lots of word processing programs will tell you the name of the file you're working on by posting the name of the file in the Caption. That's where I got the idea. Cool?

Larry,
I checked, it shows 0% = round 1, 10% =round 2 100% = round 11, etc. Rounds start with 0, and I jsut add a 0% onto the end.
