A few suggestions

[nirhopscotch]

I'm not sure what is going into the final product, but I'd like to offer up a few suggestions and mention a few problems to help with migrating players from MTA:SA to MTA:DM.

Admin Panel and Access Rights:

The admin panel seems like a "give all" or give nothing system and also does not take into consideration Admin levels as did previous systems like the GUS system for MTA:SA. This kind of limits the number of individuals who normally could can be given a certain amount of power to keep the peace on the server and to administrate game play. Most MTA:SA servers have a break down of VIPS and Admins at different levels and who have differnt access. The admin panel in MTA:DM is like giving every GUS admin level 10. It just limits the amount you can do.

My suggestion would be to have additional ACL groups that could have access to the panel but certain functions would be greyed out. So a person who can only mute and freeze would only be able to use those function through the panel. In addition to making it so admin's at the same level cannot perform functions on each other. Maybe create a function so server administrators could add panel accessto whichever groups they want.

MTA Race and Freeroam Random Spawn:

Some current MTA Race maps are freeroam cops and robbers maps. Problem is that the spawns are not random and do not follow the spawn order in the map. If this could be adjusted if would be very appreciated.

MTA Race Choppy:

There seems to be a lot of lag and choppiness when running legacy maps, not sure that that is.

More than one gamemode can run:

It would be helpful to put in some kind of block so that if the resource browser or admin panel is used to start one gamemode is while another one is running that the current gamemode is automatically switched off.

Gamemode + Map does not accept mapnames with spaces:

When using the console to enter gamemode , anything after the first word in the mapname is cut off and not accepted.

Example:

gamemode race run for your life

Result:

gamemode race 'run' map not found

I tried quotes around the mapname but no luck.

MTA Races do not work:

Found out from another post that it's because of some access rights the race resource doens't have. The access just needs added in the future acl.xml file.

Thanks MTA Team for working so hard on this product.
