Opened this issue · 3 comments

recordfromto is a feature is DSDA Doom that allow to resume recording from an already existing demo.
I think it would be nice to add support for it, next to the record feature, like that :

So, you would simply choose your base demo, and the name of the new demo.

It would really easy to implement, i hope it could get you interested :)

Hmmm 🤔
Is DSDA Doom the only one that supports this feature?

It seems to work on prBoom+ too, i saw people mention it on forums (didn't tried myself).
I don't think it would work for ports from other families.
Maybe could you make the option appears when we selected a port from prBoom family in our preset ? (to avoid users to try using it on other ports)
I know you already have the ports categorized by engine families :

I will do it, but because it increases the minimum window size, which some people will not like, it will be in the next major version.
