Did you ever have a game interrupted and wished you could restore it? Voobly has supported a complicated & manual process described at http://www.voobly.com/pages/view/275 for some time, but things just got a lot easier! [READMORELINKDOTS]
A game can be restored by two clicks and is controlled entirely by the host! To use it, go to "Restore Game" in the game settings dialog.

Some special features found in game restore:
- Ratings work for restored games. That's right, if you're interrupted you can fully continue where you left off. The old method did not work for rated games.
- The user interface shows names of users to make selecting recording games easy!
- Recording games are automatically transferred through the Voobly lobby from the host to a player if the player doesn't have the file. This could happen if one of the users crashes. If the host has crashed he should let the other player host so he can get the transferred file.
- The user interface filters out of games that can't be played
- The proper restore game directory is used automatically, switch from regular to AoFE and it will only show AoFE restore games
- Works for AoK, AoC, AoFE, and any Voobly mod.
