Adding way to skip music.

Post by Rafiz »

Base-game should give ability to skip music, or even implement in-game player (like in ParadoxInteractive games).

Reasoning behind it is - right now you have option to please one player (by disabling/enabling some ambient sounds in data phase). However it's impossible to satisfy many players if you want to add music in modded server game. Each of them HAS to have exactly same ambient sound set.

I like this idea, I'll put it on my list of potential features, no promises or estimates though. I'm thinking a simple keyboard shortcut to skip current track would do.

Some keyboards also have dedicated media keys. I don't know if it'd be possible (or desired) to also be able to listen for those?

In 2.0 there will be controls to:
  • Play the next track (skipping current track)
  • Play the previous track (up to 5 previous tracks are remembered)
  • Pause/Resume current track
They will be unbound by default and it's possible to bind them to media keys just like any other keys.

Awesome, that sounds great! 👍
