status reflection - not clear enough

Postby oferlaor » Thu Aug 07, 2014 1:23 am

In some situations NBP just sits there and it's unclear what it's doing or why it's not downloading.

In reality, it does seem to be doing something (autoparing, testing stuff it downloaded in the past, or something like that).

There needs to be some kind of a status bar that indicates what it is that it's doing, if it's not downloading... Is it sitting there because it's testing something (for example, if I closed it and restarted it, it takes a while to check the stuff it downloaded last time and only then continues), is it autoparing, is it unraring, or what?

I know NBP can do a lot of things at the same time, so the status might need to be per-download status...

I do agree but, stuff like this is always hard to get right.

I'll think about it.
