KZMod perfomance suggestions

Hey Raptor and thank you once again for the game! It feels great now but there are a few issues I would like to mention if you still welcome suggestions (I think you do :D). Also since no one has created a thread by now here is one where we can all drop our thoughts/suggestions. So here is a little few I thought would be nice of adding to the game.

1) It would be really great if along with players invis switch the sounds other players do would go away.

2) If you choose /invis, the one that hides player names above their models, and then go to spec then player name bar (which should show player name you're speccing) are all empty so you don't really know who you're speccing actually.

3) As of now it's so much uncomfortable that in order to see current map's top you need to manually search and choose the map from the list where you can eventually see the map top. Would be much easier if with one command you would access the current map's top.

Thanks for attention!

Hi! The first two are on the list, as for the 3rd, the top plugin is actually 3rd party and doesn't come with the game. We'll have to see if anyone wants to take over developing it, or what's going to happen with it. Thanks for the feedback!

it should open the map's top directly when you type: top or top10

It would be cool to have something like KZ Demo plugin by default on your LAN Server, also including plugins such as /WR, /nc, etc.

Thanks for the answer Raptor !

@Berkut, I didn't try top10 but top links to home stats page. Maybe it's different depending on the server, I was on the European one, almost full.

tried !top10 on different servers and it always worked, shock

In my opinion everything related to time - kzdemo plugins, wr, top15 and so on should come with the game in the future and people shouldnt rely on 3rd party plugins. Thats because the its time-based game and probably one of the most important things in it is the competitiveness.

Well i was writing that since beta release that top15 needs to be integrated into the game without 3rd party tools/plugins.

That, guys, is no simple task. How do you see this being "part of the game"? and who is to say someone doesn't completely cheat their run with sv_cheats on and/or a plugin. It wouldn't even work with Steam Leaderboards because there is no way to control it other than with "trusted" servers, like......only ours if we even owned one.

Then of course since there are no rules in online play you end up with a lot of bunk first place records in the top list that are virtually impossible when following normal record rules.

It can only be a plugin to store this data globally.

Me and Raptor just had a conversation about this request and its not just "put it in and we are good to go".

I talked to Raptor about this suggestion:

Save start position, a custome start position on the map, so you don't need to manually go to this position everytime you restart your time. Like on cs 1.6 public & local server.

make all entities 2man ready.
fix the detection on +use.

Raptor 18/06/2017 09:15

What's wrong with the +use detection?

badgamer mapperrecord holder18/06/2017 12:15

Sometimes, it doesn't start the button while passing next to hit at a certain speed and I'm clearly next to it while pressing it, maybe the +use spam is not fast enough since we can't hear it.

Raptor 18/06/2017 19:59

The spam only last 1.5 seconds , perhaps you pressed it too early?

badgamer mapperrecord holder18/06/2017 20:06

It does spam it for 1.5s but it doesn't spam it fast enough imo, when you pass in high speed, you might miss it..

+use spam lasts for 1.5 seconds from the moment you have pressed on +use bound key.
Also, on some maps (kz_mix_piraraa for example) timers are designed in a way that those timers can be (re)started only X seconds past last use.


EDIT: I might have found the root of your problem,

How fast does +use get spammed ?

Time difference highlighted in blockquote is what you are looking for.
hint Every 0.2 seconds.

badgamer mapperrecord holder18/06/2017 20:52

That is not fast enough when you try to press the start button with high speed.
