To speed up gameplay (I am an impatient person), I start TOAW3 with the "-nodelay" argument, which speeds up on-map movement and attacks significantly, and on my computer
And just to show that someone else is reading it - what does this mean? Ie how would I go about achieving this?
noupdate - Useful for debugging scenarios in computer vs. computer play mode, this option turns off many of the screen updates in the game. The effect is most noticeable on slower machines. This option should not be used when playing the game, as some of the updates are necessary for normal play purposes. A combination of nodelay and noupdate can speed computer vs. computer scenario test dramatically.

Minimizing will also implicitly apply both those flags.ORIGINAL: Telumar
From the Opart CW help file (within the TOAW3 directory):

You can, instead of adding a command line switch like in the further above example, set noupdate to Y in the Opart3.ini (within your TOAW3 directory).

The next patch will add the option of creating an autoxxxTzz.sal per turn and a jpg per turn. This is intended to help designers test their scenarios, although it can also be used by people that want to fine-tune their gameplay, or for watching a new scenario to see how Elmer would play both sides.
