I had no doubts about that :) Just, such multi-hour battles are quite rare, and those that exist are completed much faster due to accelerated animation, as Dirty said. Of course, there are exceptions; I read somewhere on the portal about a 12-hour battle with accelerated animation, if my memory serves me right. So, for exceptional battles, exceptional measures are needed (an inconvenient virtual machine).
Such a thing would also be useful for testing battles, but, in my opinion, even that is too much. In this regard, the best alternative would be a coordinate grid that recently appeared in SoD_SP. Now, the entire battle can be recorded in text form, and you don't have to worry about forgetting anything.
Before this, such grids were suggested on forums, and now there is something that might become widespread due to the popularity of the plugin.
Where did you find such a battle? Can you provide a link? I'm talking about the 12-hour battle with turbo animation.
