Hm, I dont think so. "Running as admin" forces the program to run with elevated rights (for programs which do not do that by default) which also means you will get the "do you permit this"-popup.
Tasclient.exe has the "run as admin"-flag hardcoded so it does not make a difference to check "run as administrator" for Tasclient. The only way to avoid the popup is to disable UAC globally (AFAIK).

How about making queues for overloaded games? If ud like to unspec u wont have to wait untill somebody leaves and be quick so noone else unspecs. You just declare your will to play and lobby would set u in a queue. This could avoid some trolololing.

TASClient is a lobby client not a lobby server so it cannot handle player queue.

Blame people getting stuck on a 16+20 specs dsd all willing to play but nobody smart enough to join an empty game.

All springlobby has is a bunch of bugs. Reason you don't have cool features like that in lobbies is because the lobby protocol is frozen death.

I request a graphical Ring !

Indeed, most of players remove all sound from tas cause annoying ring is annoying. Still poeple dont like to miss a game cause they have did not listen to the ring they disable...
Point is it would be nice to get an advertisement (like when you get a PM for example but with a different colors) so you know when you are rung. Ofc best would be you can enable/disable it. (cause some people will claim graphical is annoying)



Next suggest is brain wave transmition ring. Cause graphical ring is annoying

I use Tasclient with Office 2007 Blue skin, and with this skin the comboboxes default to have a black background with black text, so that the text cannot be seen until you highlight it (by selecting a different value).

Just thought I'd share this experience, can it be corrected somehow?

Edit: the comboboxes in map and mod options, when hosting.

Code: Select all

def in_RING():
	gui.DisplaySimpleNotification('Ring', 'Ring ring ring ring ring !', 2000)

Actually, there is one part where this bug still exists: I made a custom map option to include a string from the user, and in that case the background is still black. Here's a screenie:

My map name is anteer strait if that's of any help. I guess no-one else uses this special map option.

If I try to host a replay in TASC, I get disconnected, and "Message from server: No flooding (over 1024 per second for 10 seconds)".
