Possibility to kick players during the game #70

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I was thinking if it's possible to add vote for kick option during the game. In 
past weeks I had several games where players had ping jumping from 300 to 1500 
all the time which makes game really annoying.

You can ask host to kick the player (see /help and /kick commands description)

I might not describe the feature request well - by "during the game" I was not 
referring to the lobby, but to the gameplay itself.

Yesterday we started the game and after 20 minutes one of the players started 
to have really high ping (~800-1500) and we had to disconnect and load the save 
without him.

As a host I tried to type /help and /kick during the game (in chat, pressing 
enter key) and it seems not to be working.

Is there any other way to do that which I missed?

If something is still not clear, please let me know, I'll try to explain it as 
good as I can. :)

Sorry for late response. I'll take this issue. So what is not working when you 
type /kick 1 ? )

He means in-game, not in the lobby. Currently you can't kick once the game has 
started (that could encourage sore losers to kick the guys who beat them...). 
Why do you need to kick people in-game?

I would guess he referred to field spammers and other guys who play unfairly. 
So that players could vote to kick them. I do agree that this should not be 1 
players (host) decision though. Should be at least majority of players.

I understand the issue. Several times after playing for longer then 30 minutes 
I had a situation where other players started lagging the game (ping raised to 
4k every few seconds) what makes the game impossible to play.

As it comes to kicking the players as admins - I understand the cause why it 
has not been introduced so far, how about making a vote instead? To pass we 
would have to 80% of votes for yes.

If it's not possible or you don't think it's really necessary to have a feature 
like this, just let me know. I just wanted to make a feature request as me and 
few folks around would want to have. ;)
