team color strobe on player leave.

Post by smoth »

Can this be set to strobe at a slower less obnoxious rate or at the very least gadgetized so I can control it in my game? It is really distracting.

It is supposed to be annoying, but you can turn it off with

Code: Select all

Because it is supposed to make sure dropped/lagged players won't go unnoticed, and it does that very well IMO. This has been a major issue in the past, until the feature was introduced.

Yup. There's nothing quite like playing a game and wondering why your team is getting their asses kicked, and then finding out that your teammate dropped 3 minutes ago and that's why he's sucking.

yeah I just prefer this sort of thing to be handled in my project. These sort of things IMO do not belong in the engine.
