[Fixed][B1] Heroes, needs more awareness for F6 to ready

I played some heroes, great mode by the way.

But some players doesn't seem to be aware they need to press F6 to be ready, and often people kept saying press F6!!! in chat. I know there are boxes saying go to team, and ready green/red light, but you need to make players aware of this, I didn't even notice straightaway.

So just put up a dialog similar to "playernick is attacking!", saying Press F6 to be ready or something like that.

When somebody is ready -> attack order background = green
if not, its red

I added two more feedback has you suggest:
- A message above the Warm-up saying "Press F6 once you're ready."
- Red/Green light on the score table

Ohlala... Not kidding? The come back of the magic lights?!

The Red/Green lights on the score table are exactly the same that the ones that have been suppressed years ago on TrackMania! Please Eole! As you already did it once, can you put back the lights at the end of the rounds in TM too? I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one waiting for their come back!

(Originally: Goes green when you pressed 'del' on the waiting time to get ready, avoiding to wait 30s-1min and directly go to the next map when everybody is green)

Lol the magic lights, I miss them too from time to time. ^^
But sorry, I can't do that for TrackMania. For Heroes these lights only appear during the Warm up sequence and not at the end of the round as previously in TrackMania.

As far as I'm aware, the ready light functionality still works in TM2 Canyon, there's just no visible indication of it. Likewise for Nations/United Forever.

Go ahead, try pressing DEL when you're alone on a server...
