Replay Pause Button Request!

[Michael52]

Have you watched your own or someone else's replay that they shared and wish you can pause the replay at any moment? I know I have lol! It would be nice if Supercell would add a pause button for the replays! So in case you need to pause the video because you need to do something, or you wanna see the awesome moment in the replay, etc. Supercell should think about adding this button.👍

Good idea i know what your talking about but i think it needs a back up and fast forward aswell

How much do you need to fast forward? The longest time it could possible take to get to the very end of a replay at the max speed is 45 sec.

Well maybe your device your playing on dies when you were watching it and you dont want to watch the whole thing again

There could be a few buttons on the top of the screen, like pause, play, fast forward(replacing the 2x and 4x), reverse, skip forward, and skip backward.

This may not be possible depending on how Supercell implemented their replay system. These replays may not actually be "replay" files and may actually just be replications of the battle (by saving the times and locations you dropped specific units).

It's hard to explain, but instead of a "movie" file, think of it as a replication of the battle by keeping track of when you performed certain actions and then repeating those actions to replicate the battle.

Then again, I could be entirely off and these may actually be "movie" type files... in that case, a "Pause" button would be possible. =)

This idea is in the sticky as something supercell is considering.

Good! I think it would be really helpful.

I think that is how it works. That's why replays get reset after updates:troop AI (and therefore battle outcome) may have changed.
