Title: Crazy Suggestion...
Post by: Halpuchin on November 21, 2014, 07:15:36 pm
How about some kind of notification when my "crew mates" decide to jump ship because we're not pwning? A ding, buzz, voice, flash, anything really, not just the cold realization that the ship I've been frantically keeping afloat amidst heavy barrage is now populated entirely by AI beside myself. I'd prefer stricter measures against AWOL shipmates, but I've read the posts and accepted the lax penalties.

Worst thing is when you realize your running in to the wall because you have no captain...

So a quick pop up that's noticeable "So an so has left" , maybe in the top right.. I don't think anythings up there.. A red drop down or something would be noticeable... Maybe a sound could do it to. Or both..

I don't think this is crazy btw... Crazy is like upside down Christmas tree spire I hear about..

I think a sound like falling off the ship (http://youtu.be/pBwbVuggpyA) would be good for this.

That is a dreadful sound.... It would be noticeable.

There already is a chat message to say when someone leaves, so the suggested pop up is already here...

But I'd like a sound too...

And not the falling off the ship sound not so much, maybe just the landing sound...

Yea, I barely notice the gray chat message that so and so left.

So a sound or alert would be helpful.

Not a crazy suggestion at all. Its pretty much perfect and does fix a common problem.

For me, my problem is that im yelling at my engineer for not doing what is so important and that is to fix the hull only to look slightly to the left that he is not even here and replaced by  bot.
