Back Button for Breaking Locks

Postby Mack » Sat Jan 09, 2010 12:22 pm

I am wondering why we don't have a back button for breaking locks. By this I mean when you try to enter a building that is locked, and you have a crowbar, the page only lets you go forward with breaking the lock. Not back out of the page if you don't want to break the lock.

baja del cerro hecho agua,
y en una raíz se queda,
y sube por una camino que se llama enredadera,
parra, parrón, vid, mil hojas, verde sombra o como quieras.

The browser has a back button.. but it's a good point that every page should have a back button in the game.

In never had a problem with using the back button of the browser, but I agree that a button should be added.
Pretty in pink.

Especially in some cases cantr is sulky if you use the browsers back button and logs you out.

BTW: I think cantr would generally be much nicer if it be more AJAX based generally instead of loading the whole page over and over again, would also reduce server load quite a bit, but well biiiig code project there :)

I think at least in the past the problem was that AJAX couldn't be used with different encodings and Cantr is a multi-lingual game, but if it gets converted to UTF-8 then after that it might work out. I don't really know anything about those things, I'm just repeating what I've read.

UTF-8 would be good idea anyway, especially for a multi-lingual website its a pretty strange concept not to use it (but okay, cantr is probably out of the days when noone knew of UTF-8/used it); all stuff I do nowadays online I create is UTF-8 anyway, and this altough its monolinugal, but sorry for Off-Topic.
