You can load games (Figure 3.16, “Load Game”). Ssome demo games are included in the distribution, and new games are automatically recorded on the server side.
For replaying simply use the 4 buttons on the history bar. Besides you can have the current position saved into the database.
As described in Appendix A, Installation and Usage, you can have additional helping mirror views in the Canvas3D. This should make it easier to get an overview about the scene. Of course still depending on the actual concrete board, it is now possible to have all faces in sight at the same time, so you don't have to rotate the scene all the time during play but just try to identify the corresponding original and mirrored parts of the board. Here is a screenshot (Figure 3.17, “Client Mirror View”):
The object at the middle/bottom is the original playfield, the three others of slightly smaller size represent mirrors showing the backside under a varying point of view.
In the screenshot Figure 3.18, “XiStrat Client in Applet Mode” we see how the future might be.
Another platform might be mobile devices (handhelds). At least the displays are still improving.
