Title: Radar edit ?
Post by: Mr.Martini on December 17, 2012, 05:19
Would be nice if we could edit the radar [minimap].
If you use /loc to find a User, you can not see the markers when playing more than 60 people.

Can you do something to see only those that we want?
I'm thinking of /radar, then select:
All Player, only Suspects (red), only fines (orange), all without normal (yellow), only overweight (green) ...
This would facilitate the work as a cop ...

Thanks :*

So, you want cops to find overloaded people faster?

I think that by 100 players is not needed yet, but i saw is on other servers, you just see the nearest players.

I guess it's not (only) about finding them faster, but to make minimap more usable. There are plenty of times when I simply can't see my destination(s) because of all the yellow dots around the edge.

Well if you know the map then you know where to go:P I learned the whole map in 1-2 weeks with Wtc County and I know where every destination is and how to get to it:P

if im correct when u /loc a player the yellow icon on minimap is flashing , i think this is enough . if this will be added cops will become lazy asses and will camp 24/7 at every intersection or street

I agree with Laur, and Spazzbucket, if you cant find your unload, or a suspect, pull over, pause, map and you'll see. it takes less time than configuring the map, its a 2 second job :) dont be lazy ;)

With respect to a single player it maybe 2 seconds, but with respect to configuring the map you need to take account of all the time wasted in that,
Add those 2 seconds each time you see the ingame map from starting.
It will account for more then 2x500=1000 seconds = more then 15 minutes if 500 is the average number of times the map is seen by any player in the server since he started playing.
Now add those 15 minutes for 96 players, 15x96= 1440 minutes = 24 hours = 1 day.

Sounds good, but actually, I prefer that players can see all players near them, so it's easier to avoid accidents.

Post by: Supra on December 22, 2012, 00:01
Mick is right.. If the yellow players got removed from minimap, more accidents would occur because barely anyone look to their sides before entering an intersection.

Minimap is a significant tool to use so you can easily see if anyone is near, so you are prepared, and wont crash into them.

Mick means players within a 50 meter radius. Not like roleplay servers.
