auto requst for joining a server
« on: July 13, 2008, 02:22:46 am »
if a server that you want to join is full, you click auto request button for keep requesting to join the server.
so when it's not full, it makes you join the server automatically like counter strike.

That would get you flood-banned, if I'm not mistaken.

But in CS it doesn't keep trying to join you, it looks for when a player leaves then join you, queues you up in a list for multiple players, great idea.

I know there's programs for this but it would be great to have it in Soldat itself.

Could have a slight protocol change...
Click join game... if server sees that its full' ,it'll send the client the full thingy, along with putting them into a queue.. once somebody leaves, the server will send a successful join thing to the client.. once "cancel" is clicked, or another server is selected, the client will send out a "delete me from queue" packet..
May be a little much work, but it would be nice. This way you don't have to deal with the flooding with packets..

I've been wanting to add this sort of thing since I first started playing Soldat, so I wouldn't say its never going to happen.
