Require extra confirmation on abandon fortress
« on: August 26, 2006, 07:48:00 pm »

Can you please make the abandon fortress option take two "y"s? When you're not paying attention there's not much difference between the save screen and the abandon screen.

Speaking of the save screen, how about a little message that says "saving game" once it starts saving the game? Since saving usually takes a while, it's nice to know that the screen isn't changing because it's saving the game, not becuase it is waiting for you to press "y".

yeah thats pretty annoying. Maybe also have it says 'Done saving' so you know when to hit space to get to the title screen. Otherwise you may hit space twice and when the title screen comes up you get punted right back into the game you just left.

It allready has a "save succecfull" (or similar) screen, and pressing space twice wouldn't restart the game anyways, as you both have to press enter to activate a selection in the main menu and have to select the current game on the next screen (by pressing enter again) to actually load.
