Here's the spec for a new feature to add. It should be relatively easy to do, and if I have some time tomorrow I might do it. I'm posting it in case anyone's itching to do a little Python.
The basic idea is to support Succession Games with a Turn Counter. When you start your turnset, instead of setting a reminder you hit a hotkey that asks you how many turns your set is. This value is stored in the saved game and used as the default for future turnsets.
On your last turn, the turn starts with an optional popup just like a reminder. At the end of the turn, instead of "Hit Enter to End Turn" you'd see "Your turnset is complete" flashing. If possible, the End Turn button should be disabled or hidden. I don't think we can block the user just hitting Enter though.
When the next player loads the game, it will automatically ask them how many turns their set is, defaulting to the previous number entered.
The differences seem minor, but in addition we could add another turn counter to NJAGC so you'd see "4/10".
We'd need a hotkey to allow the counter to be set for when you have autostart disabled or if you goof it up.
