Request: Lua Map Drawing Erase Widget

Post by hammydude »

Don't you hate it when people draw scribbles and dics all over the map? Somebody should make a widget that erases all drawings on the map. I'm sure the entire community would appreciate it, and it would make a lot of games a lot less annoying. Yes i know you can erase using the ~ key, but that is time consuming, and when you are in game you dont have a lot of spare time to erase stuff.

Huh? There is one. I think. Or maybe not, I seem to recall seeing one once.

Better to show who is drawing so that they can be kicked.

A keystroke or button "erase all" would be fantastically useful.

You kinda can find that out through color difference!

Not if the people are spects, where they all take the host's color (and when these problems arise most frequently).

But only specs can see the drawings by other specs, so they don't bother the players. And of course specs have plenty of time to erase. Would still be annoying if a spec was an ass about it drawing everywhere, but I have never really cared enough about crazy drawings if I'm just a spec.

lulz, now what would be really cool, is an ingame art system!

Like Paint, with lua interface that calls to an engine level system, supporting airbrushes, variable radius erasers and pens, etc...!
