    Screenshot feature request

    I'd like to request a feature for screenshots if possible that when active every time you take a screenshot it makes 2 screenshot files one where /names is on and one where /names is off.

    Also it would be nice if screenshots where labeled better such as with the date included in it's file name.

    Thank you for your time.

    I'm not well versed in the field but I'm not sure the first thing is possible?

    Yeah...at best it could take another screenshot immediately after and then remove the names before taking it. A screenshot shows the screen as it is, without modifications during the processing of the image. It's like how you have to remove the UI before you can take one to begin with. You can't put the UI back in after hiding it.

    So first suggestion is kind of impossible and impractical. Just remove names yourself if that's how you roll when screenshotting. As far as labeling goes, do it yourself after taking the image....? The system need not do all the work for you.

    Actually, the way that the screenshots are saved now it's impossible to distinguish one from the next, whereas it's okay to leave the bulk of that work to the player having at least something easily recognizable by a human as a labelling scheme would be better. Right now I think it uses it's own ID system.
