    Id also like to make some suggestions for the GG server... another thing I hear players talk about is idle players. For some reason a player can be idle in game and be AFK for nearly the whole round (if you kill that player it doesn't count) is there a way we can make that AFK player go spec maybe after they haven't leveled up? A kill assist perk would be nice too. If a player does most of the damage but dies and their teammate gets the kill can they get 1 of the required two kills?

    Yeah...i hear the same. As far as i know, there isnt a thread in regards to addressing this issue. Hopefully OPZ will provide steps to fixing the issue so i can relay the information to players on the server. If i hear from him before you do, ill shoot you a message.

    [​IMG] This is what I was talking about before. I wish I could take a video but I forgot how... I looked on the forum to see if I could find the how to but no success... If that img link doesn't work here is the url to my screen shots... you can clearly see the one player is still on level 1 and AFK....http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197995385441/screenshots/

    I could fix this with a mod. Is it that big of an issue?

    I don't know if it is classified as a "big issue". I could potentially see a problem if the AFK player sitting idle gums up the server or hit registry. But more importantly, if a player wishes to play but all the spots are taken (like it did the other day) a player who is AFK is taking that available spot. Also players get upset because of the spawn protection. I'm really not sure why? A lot of players wish to have the spawn protection removed. I personally don't see benefit in this. It sounds to me that removing spawn protection would only benefit better or more skilled players.

    Here is how you record a demo: http://www.forums.vigilantegamers.net/threads/how-to-record-and-view-demos.740/

    AFK players aren't really a big deal. They usually will either quit the game or resume play usually less than a minute. If there are AFK players who have been AFK for a while, and there are people trying to join but the teams are full, go ahead and warn the AFK players and then kick them if they remain AFK.

    Don't kick the AFK players, just move them to spectate.

    My mistake...sorry about that.
    I did not know you could move players to spectate. Can you do this through comm commands?

    That's very good to know. I didn't know that we could move someone to spec. Will do that for AFK from now on.
