    Suggestion: Disable back button

    Using javascript you can have a message show up when the use presses back, or closes the tab/window. It's a simple thing (I'm a web developer) to do and would be useful for this game.

    I keep accidentally pressing back and having to reload which is quite annoying

    In case you can't be bothered looking this up, all you need is this javascript =)

    window.onbeforeunload =
    function()
    {
    return "Are you sure you want to close the Settlers Online?"
    }

    This will prevent accidentally pressing back, closing the tab, and closing the browser.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the suggestion but I'm sure that if it's not in the game it's because BB decided they did not want it.

    Best,

    It needs to go inside the webpage that contains the flash game, not in the game itself. BB probably didn't consider it.

    Seems silly not to have something so simple that prevents you from accidentally closing the game?

    Thanks
