Following on from this post....

Can a feature be added in game that will allow players to search for demos by a particular player or within a range of moves for a room that they have completed?

It will fit on the demo screen if the top demo box is made shorter and the high score box is moved up.

Below the high score box, new fields could be added "Player", "Duration high" and "Duration low". A search button will be beside these fields.
Once you complete a room you can type a players name into the "Player" box, hit search and you will be shown a list of that players scores for that particualar room in place of the current high score list.
Similarly you can specify the duration of demos to show and search for that instead.

Steve.

Could you explain a bit what uses you think this will have? I'm just curious. There's the obvious "find my own demo if it's not in the top 25 and I lost the local copy", and the slightly less obvious "Wow, I got a #1, and Michthro doesn't even have a top 25 score, lets look on the off-chance he has score #26 and I can make fun of him. Yeah, didn't think so either", but other than that, I just don't see when this will be used.

Rooms with unintended solutions that aren't getting updated every time soon, if you want to see what the intended solution was, and you know who did it that way.
