sgtdwetzel 0 Posted November 26, 2001 ...the #vote option. For the next patch please PLEASE make it available to only players currently in the mission, not to everyone that is on the server. Tried to play this past weekend....would get ready to enter a mission.....and would go back to the vote missions option because people not in the game were crying too loud(voted "#vote missions") and kicked everyone back. I am all for getting everybody playing MP...but it was getting ridiculous. It took literally 40 minutes to get a game going. And several times we would get 2-3 minutes into a mission......and the vote would bring us back to the vote missions screen AGAIN !!!!!!!!! C'mos guys.....if I don't get there in time, I wait. Have some courtesy..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted November 26, 2001 actually I think the 1st player in should have mission selecting rights Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sergeant rock 3 Posted November 26, 2001 I was playing that night too I think....It was on either CYBA's Training Grounds or OO7vet's server I think. Â We would just get a game started and BAM! Someone would #vote reassign or something and yank us out of the game. Â I actually think the problem there was that the server admin set the "VoteThreshold" value too low....basically allowing a single vote to ruin the game. Â If the server config file was properly configured, that wouldn't happen. It was d*amn frustrating though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgtdwetzel 0 Posted November 26, 2001 It was on 007's ..... I don't know if the threshold can be changed - I have never hosted (56Krap LOL)....hopefully it can, if not by the host, then in the next patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sergeant rock 3 Posted November 27, 2001 It can be changed. The default value for voteThreshold is .5 meaning 50% of the people must vote for the same thing in order for it to be accepted. This value can be changed in the config.txt file that launches as a command line switch on dedicated server. 007vet's server obviously set this value way too low....maybe on purpose.

Angry Radish 0 Posted November 27, 2001 All I ask, is that if BIS puts in the "1st person to join gets admin rights" bit, give the server operator the option to disable that feature, it's something I don't want, especially after seeing how tribes1 fared with that system.
