Well, yes, the Snarbolax release is great too, but I mean the bugfix release!
Especially,
Levels
- Disconnected players will no longer prevent activation of elevators and party platforms
Yes! Thank you! ;)
(Although I am a little concerned about what happens if they reconnect and are locked out of a party fight, but hopefully that was handled by making it as if they had just joined the party.)
lol I went solo on one of those stages...I didn't know that there was a glitch, I thought when it didn't load that was a random error lol.
Well I have to correct myself.
Someone was disconnected and when going through the elevator, the disconnected player got booted from the party and landed back to Haven.
This is not how you fix this problem!
If there is a disconnected party member when you hit the elevator, and the elevator will cost energy to advance, then the disconnected member will be removed from the party. This is to prevent them being automatically charged the energy cost for taking the elevator. They will receive the heat for the level, and can rejoin the party at the next level (assuming you haven't hit a restricted level).
For the party pads, they will be warped to the party pad like a dead player, so should never be locked out of a level.
I love the Snarbolax levels. :)

But this mostly would suck for disconnected people while in Snarbolax/JK/Vanaduke Run. Yes, they can join later back again, but they will get less Tokens and this would be quite annoying for that person. Because sometimes it can happen that everybody gets on the elevator and the one player disconnects.
Maybe change that, so that when the player gets disconnected, gets booted back to Haven and comes back to the party, that it still retains the same Token amount like before? Because this is just nasty.
I just noticed...new admin up thar :D
I think they automatically teleport to the button like if they're dead.
