You can already do that with a command so the leader has to unload first
I'm not sure what the command is i think it was /lead but don't kill me if it isn't :P
it's /leadon if you want to unload first as leader
You sure?
It's /lead

Correct.

Last time i hosted a convoy with lead on. Everyone left almost because they had to wait for me.

@Joshy

How can we make people more aware that convoys exist? it tells you in chat that there's a convoy going from A to B and join C to join them. There's also /convoy in /cmds isnt there?

I wont host a convoy since people treat it as if its some kind of race to unload first. You're always as slow as the last person :P
it can be fixed with a update on it, it could be like this, the unloading point will appear only when the leader unloads

How about when you do /w and there is a convoy near , you are asked if you want to join it and you can accept to join the convoy or decline to work by yourself :D
why not just do /w and it shows all convoys and you can decide which one is closest and then ask to join

what about convoy events hosted by ADMINS with a good knowledge about loads instead of car shows? use words like "more trucks = more money"

@ nado you wont ever see a convoy hosted by an admin, even more rare would be one hosted by a mod... too busy babysitting people

Yeah, I'd like to see something that shows me where the convoys are unloading to so if I want to join them and the load point is too far to make it at least I know where to meet them at the unload point without having to ask all the time (unless it exists already and I just don't see it lol).  :like:

There is the /convoy cmd wich tells you if there are any convoys and where, how about making that one "more known" to players?
I see a lot of them askin if there are any convoys since they dont know the cmd or smt.

Instead we should implement more means of making players (passively, not actively) aware of your convoy. Stuff like;

       
  • showing number of convoys or even a featured convoy (could be biggest convoy online, nearest, or one of your /contacts for example) at the top of the /work menu making players aware that convoy exists when they want to do work
  • club convoys
  • I don't really know many other ideas but suggest them if you have any

How about adding convoys that are near you to /w?

I think its not needed but if added in the future the system has to be way better, more thing would have to be included not just /invite cmd.

Convoys are now ruined by money and score hungry players. So its rare i'll join a convoy anymore. Its not because "us random player".

I did read what you said. Why should i have to have a setting to stop people spam inviting me to a convoy?

Again, im against this. I dont want to be spam-invited to convoys by players, and no i dont want to password my convoy to avoid this. Its forcing convoys on people, i dont agree with it.

Mr dobby, you must to read something to say some argument.

*** Here I have another variant if you afraid by spam and want play alone.
Dissable Convoy invite function from /preferences. (settings) like we have here Convoy Password, when we dont want join us random player.

Sorry but spam is too much of an potential issue with this suggestion and what's the point adding this if the conversation flow without spam is;
  • Leader: you want join?
  • Player: yes pls invite me (but they could just /join here, saving time...)
  • Leader: /cinvite [id]
  • Player: /accept
