Guest Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Hi all I love MTA and really looking forward to death match. I've been playing it for quitea few days now and played it ever since MTA VC. I've got quite a few suggestions, some small UI issues that would be good to implement and some other not so small ideas UI -- Need to be able to access the GTA options, especially the ability to change controls Need ability to see the last x servers connected so can easily reconnect Once connected would be good if theres a console command to find the server ip so can give them to friends Would be good if can view map editor and see everyone and see checkpoints, also even better if can see the custom roads in map editor/HUD (maybe not so easy but just an idea) Settings screen --------------- Need to default the cursor in the nickname so can begin typing straight away. Esc cancels but enter doesn't ok Quick connect ------------- Default text cursor to the IP box Allow tab to be used so can tab to other boxes Esc doesn't cancel Enter doesn't OK Browse Servers -------------- No servers at first, have to click refresh, can this be auto done when browse window opens, or if possible auto done in background when main menu loads so by the time you open the server all the info is there Suggest don't show unscanned as not going to connect to unscanned and doesn't take long to scan When select and press enter it doesn't connect Need to highlight top server and then can use up and down to scroll through the servers Game ------- When being a spectator can't see checkpoints in the game, total checkpoints or position of player When join a race the scoreboard doesn't show a position and only shows the name and ping Chat box is slightly out, when you are going to say someting, needs a few more lines above it Sometimes can't see the person on bikes and just see a personless bike moving How about ability to add times between checkpoints, like you must get from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 within x mins and when you get to checkpoint 2 you get given x mins for checkpoint 3 Would be good if you can add an option to respawn and allow map creators to decide if you can, and if so where. For Example no respawn (for freeroam) or allow them to respawn x checkpoints before the last persons in the races checkpoint Console ------- When in console if anyone speaks it brings the screen back to the beginning, difficult if your looking through the console As i say just some ideas but would certainly appreciate some comments on these from users/developers Thanks Dan Link to comment
By-Stander Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I have to say that the majority of your suggestions have already been suggested and discussed on the forum, a couple of the GUI ones have not though: Console command for ip and auto-initial serverlist scan are new as far as I know and good ideas. I don't really understand what you mean about the chat box. Everything else has been covered elsewhere. Link to comment
Guest Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Sorry, only just seen the forums and used to only read the news/blogs By the chat i mean when you press t Say: comes up to allow you to speak, the background colour for the chatbox is slightly diffrent and it needs to be increase at the top a bit Link to comment
