• music doesn't pause with game pause
• music starts from time 0 upon resuming an old game from save

Make some interface with a summary of statistics about the game, different countries, etc

game save is absolute and single; any person can overwrite while another IP is playing; effectively like a single-user application currently

JS saving uses file.php for shorthand saving because I'm lazy; doesn't work like that, because this is on GitHub Pages! Not sure what's the result, but part of this doesn't work. Will use JSql when I'm done with that

In the future, it would be interesting to expand the app to track territory ownership and acquisitions. This would be relatively simple to display with a JSON containing coordinates and original states of each territory; territory change could be triggered by pressing a territory (it would change ownership to the current country's turn, back and forth during turn). This would be helpful for economical tracking as well.

should start with USSR

Resume button shows on loading page even when there is no save to load — this should not show if there isn’t something to resume, obviously

In the future, it would be good to add a monetary system into this app for tracking each country's purchases and balances; using SQL for a full server would be ideal, but due to GitHub Pages' limited server function, something could be rigged up with JS and JSON files to avoid expensive actual hosting (besides with a local branch and MAMP). Data analytics of multiple games would be very interesting to see; and this would also eliminate the biggest problem currently, that of having to use different apps for balance and turn/time tracking for the game.
