Recording Games?

[Emraldis]

How possible would it be to have games of Sellaris be recorded while you're playing, allowing you to watch a replay of it later, as a spectator? Something akin to the cinema mode from the later Halo games. It would be useful for anyone trying to make videos on stellaris, or just watching to see what other people did during the game.

I never record any game, but I know a lot of Youtubers use FRAPS:

Is it the best software out there? Probably not.

No, I don't mean in that sense lol. I mean have the game save all the actions you take somewhere, and then let you re-watch the game later as a spectator, with an AI taking your place and just copying all of the actions you took in the game.

You mean like the EU4 timelapse feature?

Maybe? Don't have EU4. If you have sins of a solar empire, they have a similar record-play feature for their games.

As far as I know, (I have yet to finish a complete game), there is no timelapse feature in Stellaris (yet).

Ah I see what you mean by timelapse feature (I think). Yeah, something like that, but saved off to the side and playable from a different menu, rather than only once you win. And ideally you'd be able to pause it, speed it up, rewind, zoom in/out, etc.
