I think that it would be nice if the game had an option that would allow the game to make a beep or some other sound when a tape has finished loading.
This way, when you are loading a tape, you can switch (for example) to the R&D Forums and post a new topic about beeps and tape loading. Then, when you hear the beep, you switch out of the forum and
Beep when Tape Done Loading

Sounds like a good idea! Personally I very rarely use the speakers and almost never for games, but very often when I was playing RnD I switched to some other window when the tape was being loaded and forgot about RnD for the next few hours... good thing there's a pause after the tape is loaded... so I can imagine that for those who use sound it could be very, very useful. At least until the game-state-snapshots are implemented. ;-)
But could you make it with an option to turn it off and on (besides the general sound switch option). I can imagine that it could be irritating (not sure though).Holger wrote:Sounds like a very good idea that should be easy to implement!
