suggestion: new priority: override

Post by biatche » 2003-12-05 06:30

how about make a new priority.. i would call it override
it's higher than highest priority. say there's something that you really want to download.. maybe something rare (without having to set your downloads to highest, and close connection of any existing downloads from a particular user).. you set it to override. it stops the present downloads, and starts it right away.

why this method rather than manual? it's faster.. if you were to do it manually, you might possibly lose your slot cuz you gotta set priority, close connection and then force attempt.

would be even better if it could possibly allocate itself more bandwidth just for the override downloads.
