Adding new filters to "Past Games" section
Dear Fizzer, would you be so kind as to do sth with "Past Games" section? It is totally user unfriendly. Whenever I want to analyze the game that has just ended, I need to spend(waste) hell lot of time in "Past Games" section to find it. Why? Because you have only allowed to sort past games by 1)their name 2) thier "Crated Date". Believe me or not, sometimes I just dont remember the exact name of past game so it is annoying (or impossible) to search it that way. The option to sort games according to thier creation date is…
173 votesYou can now sort by Ended Date, and it displays this way by default!

Additional Real World Maps
More real world maps warlight made maps available.
160 votesWarLight now has over 100 real-world maps, which is a lot more than it had when this item was created. So I’m marking this as complete. If there’s a specific map you’d like to see, creating maps is easier than ever! See this link for instructions: http://wiki.warlight.net/index.php/Map_Making

Auto boot
Game creators can enable auto-boot for their game. When enabled, if a player reaches the boot timer, WarLight will automatically boot them instead of requiring a player to click the boot button.
145 votesWarLight now supports auto-boot! When the auto boot time is reached, WarLight will automatically boot players without requiring anybody to click the boot button.
Game creators can set the auto boot independently of the other two boot times

Defensive AI
I think there should be an AI that deploys but doesn't attack. This would be very useful for diplomacy games when someone gets booted and wants to come back. As it is now, you either get unexpectedly backstabbed by an ally gone AI, or you have people rushing to fill in empty territory while you are on the other side of the map and not gaining anything. Having this at least as an option in settings would greatly improve diplomacy games for Warlight players.

Leagues/Clans
**Many people have brought up the issue of a ranking system and ladder. This concept would be amazing because, in addition to driving people to better, it would reduce the issue of mismatched opponents.

**Another topic discussed has been preformed teams. I happen to think this is a much needed system, one that would greatly improve the site. I often want to play with my friends on the same team but this is hard to accomplish. A set-teams function would make this much easier. Preformed teams would also lead to another reality- clans. The best players on the site…

Soft boot
There are two main purposes of booting: player doesn't submit orders in given time or leaves the game/WL.
In the first case it's sometimes because he was unable to do so in given time (hardware failure, power cut, whatever) but then he goes back to WL just to see he'd been booted and can't play any more.
So, how about "soft-boot" mode? In soft boot player which doesn't submit his orders is replaced by AI for that one turn only. Then there's another full time turn when player can go back and continue his game. However if player leaves game…118 votesI’m pleased to announce that WarLight now supports soft boot!
To use this, enable the setting “Booted players get turned into an AI.” When a player becomes an AI, they now have a button that allows them to take back control from the AI. This effectively allows an AI to control a player while they’re away, and they can play themselves while they’re there.

Secondary Colors
It's a little bit annoying to miss out on a game just because you're picking a color.
Having preset secondary and tertiary colors would help to counter this.
Of course, being able to set the priority of all of the colors would be the best solution to this problem but that may be more trouble than it's worth. Two or three should be fine.
115 votesI’m pleased to announce that WarLight now supports secondary colors! Just visit https://www.warlight.net/ChangeColor and you can enter an alternate color that will automatically be used when your primary color is taken.

AI replaces booted players. Game is over when AI is the only opponent.
Allow game creators to optionally specify that when a player gets booted he's territories are taken over by AI.
I think ONLY booted player should be changed by AI (not surrendered).
In case if all you opponents are AI - the game is finished and you win.
EXAMPLES
Team A (3 players) vs Team B (3 players) - 1 player from B is booted, the games is between 3 v 2+1AI and continuous.Game 1 vs 1 - booting means 1 v 1AI = end of game.
Game 2 v 2 - booting means 2 v 1+1AI. When second player…
112 votesYou can do this now! Two checkboxes exist when creating a game:
“Players turn into AI controlled players when booted”
and
“AIs surrender when only one human remains”
By making the AIs surrender instead of just ending the game, the remaining human can choose if they want to accept those surrenders or have fun slaughtering the AI.

Partial history : see what only one player could see
That would be great to have the option of seeing the game as one given player actually saw it, instead of only the full picture. That feature would be a Major improvement for reviews.
109 votesYou can now use the “Switch Perspective” drop down while viewing history, to view the map with fog even on a finished game!

Cleverer AI
I'd like to see some more/smarter options for the AI -- perhaps just several difficulty levels, or perhaps also different styles of play. This is useful for playgroups who want to face off against a computer team, but still face a challenge.

I want instant messaging chatrooms.
I want chatrooms where we can message each other. This feature would be great for clans and non clans alike, and it would be a great way to chat and arrange real time games with other players.

Scenarios
To be able to take a map and personally decide the initial army placements. So if i want i could decide players A gets 10 armies in south america and player B gets 3 armies in north africa and 5 in greenland. Also to be able to decide who gets what territories so for example in BIG USA i can give the east to one player and the west to another.
74 votesI’m pleased to announce that custom scenarios are now available!
Game creators can now elect to forego the built-in map distribution system and enter, territory-by-territory, exactly how they want the map to be distributed.

Increase the Forum Posting Level to 30/Ban Trolls
Trolls everyday are taking over the forums... It is pointless and their contributions to the community are nothing but a annoyance.
Increasing the Posting level would only help this a little, removing non-funny trolls (some are funny, I like them) that do no good for the community should not be allowed to post to the forums, at-least the ones that people use to try to co-ordinate events.
72 votesThe new voting system should fix up the forums.

Display the standings in round Robin tournaments
A round-Robin tournament sets only one objective : be the highest in the standings. For now, the standings can't even be seen as a tournament goes on. It's just essential to make it possible to see how each one fares and where each one ranks.
64 votesRound robins now show the wins and losses of each player on the tournament page, even while the round-robin is in progress!
