.kju   3244 Posted April 16, 2019 what is lobbyIdleTimeout ?  // 5 seconds for ready, 10 for notReady what does this mean? shouldnt it be the actual values of your samples? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden   1125 Posted April 16, 2019 @.kju  while it depends on mission and server setting this is to prevent players to occupy slots in lobby such situation may lead to blocked mission-selection or mission-start or prevent those slots to be usable by active players etc.  note: there's no visualization in UI of how much time the player has left.  about the syntax, two integers array for setting different timeouts when players are ready or not. They can also have single integer value, both Ready and notReady parameters are then set to single given value  1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwarden   1125 Posted April 18, 2019 there were some questions about the recent #perf_prof_branch 1.90.145620 build fix of waitUntil it fixes the situation when waitUntil statement returns nil, it got stuck on that and cluttered the script scheduler now waitUntil is aborted and the error message is displayed to the user like some examples below:  `Error Type Bool expected Bool` `Error Type Any expected Bool` `Error Type Nothing expected Bool` `Error Type Obj expected Bool` etc. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While these settings are probably great for KOTH servers, they are already a major headache on our group's coop server. Our typical operation starts with organising members into roles on the slotting screen until all necessary roles are filled, then proceeding through to a spawn area where the mission is planned. These settings are kicking members who are just waiting for us to get ourselves organised.  Additionally, is there any idle timer running once in-mission? A couple of our members have been kicked after going all the way through with messages indicating that it is again an idle timer. They probably were idle (people often go AFK at this stage) but this isn't something we want. Thanks 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farantis   1 Posted April 29, 2019 I agree to fourjays comment! We need a way to disable this Idle-Thingy realy quick! Our HC have been kicked from the Lobby for ideling.
