Help File Switcher IMPLEMENTED

Post by LordOfAles »

As games (Especially AoF) are getting more tedious to load the more content gets added, and as the help file is the one to load the most, i suggest adding an option to simply toggle it off. This will AMAZINGLY decrease the load times which are actually, although it might seem weird, crucial for people making maps for AoS and its variants, some even them at all. Maybe make a separate app for the help file? Anyways, the point is to somehow not to load the help file as it's unecessary to most of players. Daniel can you please do this?

I do not know about AoS or AoWW (Or AoG or any other) but for AoF the loading time for me is about 40-50 sec. About 15 is the help file. So this is a brilliant idea, especially since the loading time has been increasing steadily for a long time. Separate app is a bit extreme but an option to disable it is fine imo.
