If you guys want you can also add a buton in the guy name to recall right to where he is . :lol:

No way, that's dangerous. You should also be able to see their HP/MP, their potion timer, and the number of monsters attacking them. You should also recall in hidden if you use the menu.

I always thought the ones that avoid the danger were people who don't support this system

It would be good if you came up with some ideas on how it can work.

If I understood you correctly Gang-Bang, you want some sort of command that brings up a gump with a list of the players with .sam enabled and their location/coordinates. That could work imo.
You want to remove the sysmessage altogether though? Wouldn't it be good to be announced when someone enters a new region so you don't have to type the command everytime to get the gump up?

Anyone else have any more ideas?

well the flaw with what we have now is:
say you enter occlo, i get informed and want to gang you. i enter occlo, you get informed, you know im after you. Taran: "Kal Ort Por"

those r the ppl that are too lazy that they cant press heal and recall, sometimes i wonder why don't people just download runuo and play by themselves.

u guys wanna crap about .sam when gang posted a suggestion, expect some crap back.


also the .sam is useless as when I enter occlo and then i see gang has entered occlo, i will probably recall to safety (unless i'm feeling up for a duel lol), not only that but since it's optional it even makes it more useless as no1 turns it on.

Are their more advantages in turning it on or off? I mean if u look at it even for pvper's there's no real advantage in turning it on anyways since not many ppl turn it on.

Yea, Taran , you got it right about the gump. It's because people aren't always moving from spot to spot, we have many dungeons that require fair amount of time to go through, or they may tame a ride for 30 mins or whatever, so you don't see the message, thus right now server status is much more useful than .sam.
And I don't really like sysmessage because of the reasons Fable and Luda mentioned. Although the message itself isn't that bad because you can enter some other region before recalling to the victim, and sometimes you just don't think about hunting someone down, then message appear and you may change your plans.
So I myself don't really care will sysmessage stay or not, just make the info more detailed and the option to check where people are everytime you want.

just make it annoucne where you go when you recall to a new region or enter a new region if you have .sam enabled

[imported_Taran]

I added a gump to the new server now.
.sam is disabled and instead you type .DisplayLocation or .DL to toggle your location on/off. It still has the same delay between toggling, 24 hours.
If you have it enabled you can type .ShowPlayers or .SP to get a gump with a list of all the players with .DL enabled, their location and their coordinates. You can also filter by names just like the .on command by typing for example .sp taran
The sysmessages have been removed altogether.

How does that sound?

[imported_Gang-Bang]

Sounds perfect. Thanks alot, Taran

[imported_Taran]

Alright!

Unfortunately it won't be changed on our current server since I have commited a ton of changes for the new server that doesn't work with the current one.

Actually, no changes (unless a huge bug is discovered) will be commited to the current server. Only to the new one. But it shouldn't be long until we get the new server up and running now. Jackal said he would send us the money in 1-2 weeks.

[imported_Rabbi Samild]

Ahhh, I'm retarded. Gang, I thought you were asking for something that automatically listed everyone's coords on demand . If it's only for participants in the .sam program and people are ok with putting it on themselves then I'm all for it.
