randompandora Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I would like to see the ability to restrict character selection in servers. Posting not firestarters tends to encourage trolls to enter and use them. And maybe put an experience bar to play dst, I'm really tired of everyone saying it'st there first time when you have to have solo to play dst, I don't have time to stop and explain everything as I'm trying not to starve.

ShakerGER Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Like srlsy? You starve? And if it's winter these bicthes are dead before you can explain smth to them so yeah. ANd i think it's nice that i can try out Wigfrid! But you're maybe right:"Fire can be dangerous but is the the essence of life" -Some **** from the last air bender. the Sun bros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outseeker Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 @randompandora, I totally appreciate everything you're saying here. I don't know if implementing a whole Experience system, just to prevent noobs joining your server is totally realistic though it would save us hosts some time. For the firebug/Willow problem, I suggest you Subscribe to the Simple Protection mod. It has configurable options to prevent people burning down the world, emptying your chests, iceboxes, chester, etc. and does a really good job of it I think. It also has protection for Willow specifically, which stops her burning down the camp when insane as an option. Here you go: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=360823660 - Enjoy!

Hagenso Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 One of the best parts of DST is to teach less experianced players and let them enjoy the game.I understant why you would want a experiance restriction but I don't belive that it's a good idea.Implementing an experiance barrier will only lead to new player not being able to find a server and so wont play and wont get better at the game.What I've noticed is that new player die much faster then more experianced player so if you want you can kick them once ther dead.

Rellin Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Simple Protection is a great mod for Endless or Survival Non-PvP Servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be super useful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rezecib Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 c_despawn("charactername") sends the player to the character select screen? That would be super useful! Not charactername. The scoreboard now has numbers next to each person, so you can do it like this:c_despawn(AllPlayers[#])where # is their number on the scoreboard.

Michi01 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Not charactername. The scoreboard now has numbers next to each personI think I remember that Seth said the character's name works too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammoAmmo Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I think the character restriction is a great idea for hosts to be able to customize their servers better. It doesn't even have to be to ban willow- maybe a server owner just hates wolfgang and would prefer if noone played him. I don't see any problems with increased customizing options. And outseeker and randompandora are right, when have you given directions on the internet to strangers and had them follow it? It is much more likely that willows will join if you specifically ask them not to. As for the experience bar, it may be cool to have an experience requirement, but I'm not sure how I feel about it.

No, look at the code:-- c_despawn helperlocal function dodespawn(player) if TheWorld.ismastersim then TheNet:Announce(player.name.." "..STRINGS.UI.NOTIFICATION.LEFTGAME, player.entity, true) --Delete must happen when the player is actually removed --This is currently handled in playerspawner listening to ms_playerdespawnanddelete TheWorld:PushEvent("ms_playerdespawnanddelete", player) endend-- Despawn a player, returning to character select screenfunction c_despawn(player) player = player or ConsoleCommandPlayer() if player ~= nil and player:IsValid() then --Queue it because remote command may currently be overriding --ThePlayer, which will get stomped during delete player:DoTaskInTime(0, dodespawn) endend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benitro Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I think some version/form of the simple protection mod should go into the final release of DST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
