pause - back in netplay?
Thu, 2009-06-18 12:04
hello all,
i know pause function was removed from network game due to abuse but the question is when it's back? pause is extremely handy in situation like:
- the call of nature (ie when you do not want your pants to get wet)
- you want to move hedgewars window from primary monitor to the secondary one (using alt-tab can be used too but.. pausing the game is way more faster/user friendly)
- you need to suspend the match since boss is nigh
maybe one could propose a pause and it would be up to room administrator to approve/deny it?
cheers,
joe
Yeah, if the room admin is the only one that can pause the game it could be more useful.
Come to the dark side, we have cookies... - V
Hedgewars script for ubuntu is here...but maybe I have to update it first
Or how about a more cooperative approach?
- Everyone is able to pause the game twice
- Everyone is able to unpause the game at any time
This way you can't abuse it (well, twice, but only for a short time).
Will this method be implemented on 0.9.12?

i think voting for pause would be nice, just like allowing room owner and admins to pause and unpause at anytime
(when will metamod be available to hedgehog wars? XD)
