Beta 3 RC1

[Confruggy]

"Players are suggested to add the server they are leaving to their favorite"
But please make it just once!

[Hylis]

in fact, we added a confirm box to leave a server, and in this box, players can check/uncheck the server as favorite

Please fix shadows of trees, because there aren't high res.

Well, I am pretty happy about the beta in shootmania.
You can trust me, that I have never seen a game where players have such an influence into that game!

So, I just want to mention, keep cool, relax the situation and always be pleased that you can discuss your opinion with the main developer - Hylis - here

Cheers!

Ok, I will applaud you guys for daring to test new things and trying to improve your game and modes, however I don't think letting defenders choose weapons is something that will work out, even if they can be seen constantly when they choose laser. (Letting them choose between nucleus and rockets might be fine tho)

The trouble with this is:
- How are mapmakers gonna balance maps now?
- What if defenders stack all 3 together in one spot with laser, forcing attacker to take a peak to go for them and if he does, he picks off 1 but takes 2 shots? Suddenly it's 1 armor vs 2 defenders with laser?
- As above, 2 laser with 1 guy choosing rockets and playing ninja right next to them?

I won't say "nonono" before this is tried out, but I don't see this working out very well, and I don't see myself even wanting to try it out much. I thouroughly enjoy the gameplay of Elite as it is now (which is why I play so much)

There's also the thing about IPL going on atm, which will mean many, if not all, top teams probably won't be touching this mode untill it's over, which is gonna limit the testing of this mode greatly.

"Players are suggested to add the server they are leaving to their favorite"
But please make it just once!

Or make it an option you can set the first time the question is asked "Always ask/Never ask again"

16. Away from keyboard management in script. Now put in spectator, with a resume button displayed

Ok, if you do this are you gonna change how that players goes into spectator-mode? Because the trouble right now is that if a player manually goes into spectator-mode, he is still taking up a playerslot, stopping other players from joining the server to play. The result is the remaining players votekicking said player most of the time to allow for others to join the server and play (because you don't know how long that player is gonna be gone for)
