Pause while on loading screen and other suggestions #2

Open Darxide23 opened 5 years ago

Darxide23 commented 5 years ago

Is it possible to pause the timer while on the loading screen? This is very clearly a point of unfairness if you're posting to the leaderboards given the wildly varying loading speeds between different computers.

Another thing, is it possible to detect the Elite level chosen for Faction missions and other such missions? I assume that if it were, you'd have implemented it already, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Thanks again!

It should already pause during loading screens and cutscenes, so faster computers shouldn't have much advantage there.

I can't think of clean way to track faction mission difficulty; Instance seems to have the same ID, the selection interface isn't using flash, and player doesn't appear to have hidden stat indicating the selected difficulty. Best i could do is check targeted hostiles max HP.

Tracking dungeon difficulty should be possible, since i can just check the groupfinder id, it will require some work though, especially on the website side of things.
