Re: [Audyssey] swamp trucksitting
there is another problem. in certain mission types, i for one, tend to collect a lot of the crates, thus other players wouldn't. how would i then know when to slow down, and if i did, where is the ballance, when i could collect faster and end the game sooner? to many htings to considder really for that. i think it would be better to do something similar to rs games, in that once people have been sitting there and not doing anything for a set time, the leader can boot them out. possibly have a menu that pops up at a command that lists thoughs who have been idelling for a set time so people can boot particular ones. not all, as sometimes in the middle of a mission somebody has to go do something without warning. dallas On 21/07/2012, Dakotah Rickard dakotah.rick...@gmail.com wrote: I would rather not see the missions become timed like that, because there's only one crate at a time, as far as I know.

Re: [Audyssey] swamp trucksitting
That doesn't make it much harder for trucksitters though, because having a little wander around the loading docks would count as not ideling wouldn't it? So far, I reckon the simplest suggestion would be the most affective, IE add a kick command tied in to the tracker which is only available to the mission leader. It totally relies on them enforcing it and being fair about that, but I think it'd be a while before that started to get abused. After all, the biggest objection to trucksitting is fairness isn't it.

Re: [Audyssey] Problem with real speak install
Hi Greg, HmmThat is strange. Based on the error you gave it sounds like the setup has a problem reading from your cab file. Just by chance can you extract the cab file using Winrar or something to test the integrity of the cab file? Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] swamp trucksitting
If a player in a team is trying and cannot find crates, others can always tell him where it is and let him go collect it. That way that player can also learn. I am not sure what is the problem about collecting crates too fast. If you can end the mission in less than 10 minutes, no 1 gets kick out. If you decide that others are not contributing and they should not share your rep and exp, wait for their time limit. I think this way every1 has a fair play ground. As for kicking players, we can forsee some of them doing that just because they doesn't like that person to be in no matter how much he contribute. If you look at the chat, it's obvious that many there are very bias towards certain groups. Say if a truck sitter leads a mission and a searcher joins, the searcher turn in most of the crates and get kick out just before the last crate. 锦发/Steady Goh - Original Message - From: Jeremy Kaldobsky jer...@kaldobsky.com To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Saturday, July 21, 2012 10:37 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] swamp trucksitting This idea was considered a while back, but we had the problem of players legitimately being unable to find crates in large teams.
