Civ Assistant... Should we use?

[Strider]

The ultility program called Civ Assistant which ThunderFall posted in the Main CFC page is actually pretty good. I tested it out and it worked fine for me. Here's what it does:

Military: Mainly it a in-game combat calc... very simple to use

Not working! History: A in-game notepad... Would be very useful in T/C's

Not Working! Screenshot: helps make better screenshots.

No, thanks. Not for me, Strider. I want to play with humans, not calculators.

Most of this would be up to the DP. I would use it, but hard drive space on my computer is at a premium.

Anyway, these features aren't really needed. No matter how much I had windows, notepad and the 'print screen' button are fine for me. As for the combat calculation, I just hope I win all the time

The combat calc wasn't really the one that I would use either in the game. It would be the screenshot one and the note-pad one.

Why I am suggesting these is because:

1) If the DP already has the game loaded(or if someone who is looking at the game already has it loaded) it is hard (and I have to leave my game once and awhile) to turn notepad on.

2) It might include stuff where you can copy & paste queue's etc. into it.

I'm not really suggesting using it during the game.

In the Demogame I would not use it, I rather trust in my judgement. But in my own games I would use it since I have a ton of custom units in Civ III.
