What about a marker refreshing every X seconds (with a value on it, like (target 4sec ago, maybe shorter) ? So you can't track EXACTLY where the player is at any moment.

I tried something like that but it felt very laggy.
I will need some infos from Nadeo (how to get players positions on the client side) to find a good solution. ;)

Are you yourself always the target of the player that is your target or is it completely random?

In the first case you would just have a duel with your target and could ignore everyone else (if I understood it correctly).

The second case would be more interesting imo. Then you would have to escape from your own pursuer and chase your target (who is chasing someone else) at the same time. Might also need a second marker for your pursuer then.

I didn`t get my key yet so please dont tell me to test it myself XD

Test it yourself !!!!





You do a duel with your target.
It wouldn't be fun to shoot someone who doesn't try to shoot you back. ;)

It's not a bug, it's a feature. :D
It's to prevent to play against the same player as before.
(Without this feature, when there are only 4 players on a server, you would always have the same target).
