Maniaplanet Update #2 - feedback (#2.3 released)

[sadzealot]

So about chat fading away... Have you guys seen how this works in most other games? If so, why are you doing it the way you've done it?

This is what you should do:

After X number of seconds, fade away the entire chat-area. Keep the C-key like it is (can we scroll through the chat when having pressed C?) however... when you press a key to chat/teamchat, instantly bring back the chat-area so you see the last things written and don't have to press C just to see the last couple of lines written.

This way you only have to press the chat-key to bring back the last few lines and don't have to press C and cover your entire screen just to see a couple of lines of chat.

should work this way.

Maniaplanet crashes for me on startup after this update. It says please wait and then it crashes. I tried running the game in windowed mode, as administrator, in compatibility mode and reinstalling the game, but it is still the same.
It even produces a LogCrash file, but it is completely empty!
Can anyone help me? With valley comming out tommorow, this is a really bad time for this to happen

Maybe something was changed in your settings (the update did some stuff to it).

If not, maybe a re-install will help

A bug on our master-servers prevented the echelons to be shown as intended on the name-tags.
It should be fixed now.

Enjoy !

This...
And you can't scroll through the chat when you've pressed C. It's annoying.
