The option to remove the back button

10 years ago

I don't know, but I think it might be useful if you had the option to remove the back button in your storygame. Then when people play the game, they won't want to keep clicking the back button when they die, until they beat it.

I mentioned this ability (it can be done with coding) in a thread somewhere and 3J (or madglee?) immediately shot it down as some sort of violation and stuff.

I doubt it will be added as an optional turn-on/off setting. Not a great idea either, considering some stories may glitch or if people want to go down a different path - the go back button is essential. As well as the reset and save buttons.

I'll try to find the thread where I mentioned it.

None of the admins want this ability, because it restricts the freedom of the player. Something I agree with.

If you do it with coding, does it screw up ALT + left button too?

The back button is a given right for a reader.

You need a way back out because there are so many glitches in advance games that it isn't even funny.

This was the last major debate that was had on this subject. BradHall's frustration was pretty amusing.

I understand why you want it, but it is a bad idea. It restricts the player to the point of annoyance.
