replay mode would be so good for review and improvement

This may take too much storage space on the servers considering the matches are much longer than mcsr matches, this may be able to stay local however if world/gameplay data is stored on local devices themselves. Not entirely sure though but this should probably be focused on later

hermes is a (speedrun legal) mod that logs and saves a bunch of information about the player, and should be enough to construct a replay from. the main problems are
- building a mod/program to playback a replay from hermes logs would be a lot of work
- these files can be heavy, so uploading, storing, and downloading them from draftout servers would be pretty expensive (compared to other costs at least)

with all that said though, you can use hermes while playing draftout right now* to essentially record a replay, and if a lot of people use hermes it would probably become possible to just ask your opponent to share their ghost file to be able to see where they went throughout the match. someone would just have to build a simple program or mod to playback a ghost file (which would be a lot easier than a full replay)

* i think, you should be able to at least

ideally, there would be an integrated replay viewer built into draftout and automatic uploads so you can always see what your opponent did, but it would be possible to get a lot of the core features without any changes to draftout itself
