Title: /reconnect command
Post by: M.rSnow on May 11, 2008, 12:30:46 pm
:)
I think it should be implented. Apparently it haven't been suggested before(weird). Cause if I'm in a sever and I'm having some diabolic bug and i want to rejoin quickly, whitout taking the risk of marking another lobby sever. I should be able to just type /reconnect. Sure it would mess up my stats but its better than letting the bug go on.And its great for hexer.

Should this be a poll?

Edit:
To clarify this is meant to be a way to reconnect whitout leaving the server. Otherwise its not very usefull. Though that might be harder to add.

/reconnect , like in all other games.
F12 for sure.
I bet all the modders will tell it isn't something that HAS to be implemented and they will support the fucking explosions more.

Also when there are bugs that u can just rejoin to fix (like wrong team bug, or wrong kill/death count bug (not sure if that still exists))

will probably get abused, due to the fact you spawn at the very time you join a team = ultimate defense!!! :O

good point...
either i change my vote to f11 or keep it f12 only if they have it so u dont respawn instantly on join, or somehow check client-side when u do /rejoin, then on next join, don't spawn instantly...

How about you can only use /reconnect once a map?

but then again, the reason for this addition is because of bugs. The more appropriate solution would be to fix the bugs, not find a way around it. :)

[sarcasm]kind of like the work-around where you cant do commands like /t or other short cmds[/sarcasm]

Of cause your not supposed to respawn after each rejoin. And i don't know any computor (ofc there are but i don't have any) that can reconnect under 5 seconds. (I see that as average spawn time)

Yey :D

You can simply click the "join game" button...

Just point and click "Join Game" the minute you get kicked or whatever. Don't have to find the server again.

When you are spectating it might be useful to be able to choose a team to join as well.

has been fixed so you technically don't leave the server (I think) when you rejoin. Also If you join as a spec, you don't have to leave to change to red or blue.

I don't know about this..

After all, we are pretty tolerant of server kickings and bugs arent we?

F12 i think if a person gets bugged like map bug or something hell just type /reconect ....
but the servers must record the ip numbers so users wont reconect like idiots...
i think i stick to this idea
