    [Suggestion] Last Song Button or Settings Menu in Score Display

    I'm sure almost everyone reading this has come across a situation where they've wanted to adjust a setting of some sort (such as autofail or some other mod) after finishing a song, and then has had to quit out of the end song screen, change the setting, and find the song once again. It's very annoying and could probably be easily remedied. I suggest either implementing a button on the main page that automatically loads the last song or putting a "settings" button on the page that comes up after one finishes a song. Either one seems reasonable, though I think the former would likely be easier to code. Thoughts?

    Uh well it's a good idea, but I can't imagine it'd be super easy to code. It sounds rather difficult actually.

    post-dumps abstractly represent the existential nihilism that the song invokes in the listener with negative space, evoking the ephemeral nature of the mind - the journey of stepmania begins in hope yet soon becomes corroded into a dialectic of futility, leaving only a sense of dread and the unlikelihood of a new synthesis

      It depends. I don't know much about flash coding, but I presume it would basically be "linking" a button to a function that called up whatever the last play was (and there's probably a database with the necessary play info).

        Here's what you do.

        Hit home, and move your mouse to the top of the circle in the center above the home thing that comes out, make sure you're pointer is turned into a hand, click it a bunch, and the last song that you played will start playing, it's pretty cool.

          Honestly this idea seems kinda pointless... I see you're point where it could be useful, but probably for only a small number of people. What the admins really look at when adding new features is how many people this feature will appeal to - such as the new speedmods.

            What I'd prefer is if after I finished a song it dropped me back in the same genre and page I had open. Maybe rename the current 'try another song' button to 'back to new menu' and add a new 'try another song' button that does just that.

              WTF?! If that's a bug, then it's the best bug ever.

              dood: I understand what you're saying, but I think you're underestimating the utility of such a feature. Sure, it wouldn't be as "awesome" of a feature as the new speedmods are, but I think it would be useful enough in its own right.
