dr_eyeball 16 Posted March 6, 2007 I'm just running this idea past everyone of having a new Team Score and Stats Dialog viewable by all players in a mission, not just the commander. Would this be useful? Has anyone already got a similar one or working on one? What else could it display? Click for full size image. It would initially be a simple non-interactive static dialog of text. I know most of this info can be obtained via commands, but not sure about all of it yet. Reasoning: - The existing score dialog appears to be limited to 10 players - Only the commander has the Commander Bar (across the bottom) which shows a lot of this info already. - Not everyone has TeamSpeak/VOIP for quick comm's. Typed messages are often lost. - I dislike viewing both teams in the one list Benefits: It would help to know: - who's dead as a seagull and waiting to restart or simply dead and waiting to respawn - who's in a vehicle (including yours since AI names are not displayed) - who has special gear - who's TK'ing - who has an active command - who requires assistance - who has wandered off or is far away due to respawning - show grouping & coloured sub-groups Future ideas: - Ability to rearrange columns and hide (if too much info is revealed) - If modded, could probably replace existing score dialog - If scripted, could probably be activated via a key (or worst case, radio command) - Extend the dialog to allow detailed requests and reflect this in the dialog and chat. Eg: Requesting pick-up via chopper at Fg56. - Provide 2 views: normal and extended info - Display limited info on opposition team - mainly scores, etc - Provide scrolling or multi-page view for high player counts. (eg: 40+ players) Misisng features: (which may not be possible) - ping - kill breakdown by type. Eg: tank, chopper, infantry, etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
