[P] Visible Frame-counter in the player

Post by Mick »

Why not implement a little box in the player, that shows the number of the Frame in the editor?
So if you would reach the frame with the number 435 (just an example) in the editor, that box would show the number 435. This would make it easier to tell the author, where he made mistakes (e.g. in the puncation) and didn't see it.
This could be a helpful addition to v6. :mrgreen:

This would be useful in playtesting mode. :)

There used to be one in the past (at the place where there is now the save button).

Anyway, the work I did over the week end covers this request and a LOT of other things.
Hopefully, you should be more than satisfied with the next V6 player preview ;-)

Is it going to be always visible, or just in playtesting mode?

I don't think it should always be visible =\

Okay, I just figured it was easier to say so now than to possibly have you go "too late" when the preview comes out xP
