A new mod with no indication of player deaths?

[_Rave_]

It would just take away:  _Rave_ (Headshot) Badspot

It would be useful for sneaky games.
Would it have to edit each gamemode or could it override the default function?

I see where you're going. Maybe someone in a TDM is watching a door while the other is watching a window upstairs, but when the guy watching the door dies, the upper guy will run away.

Just saying, this never happens. They would just storm out the door and DM.

[Bushido]

when someone dies and you're not instantly aware who it was the first reaction is to panic

after all, it might have been the best guy on your team, and now you're royally forgeted



so he'd probably go inside, get behind cover, and try to figure out who's dead- or at worst stand perfectly still

[Peejster]

Maybe only have it display the death if you were close enough to where the kill happened?

What about if you see the person kill somebody it shows up.

cigarettepot (Shotgun) Proog

But if you just see the person die it would be like.

?????? (Shotgun) Proog

Or if nobody saw it at all it wouldn't show up at all.

[TheKhoz]

How about Pi (Sniper) ?????? so you know I killed someone, just not who.

[Peejster]

Or have an RTB pref deciding which one

[psycopathic clown]

Khoz, you could simply look at who respawned... Or who's body it is on the floor lol.

Peejster has a point. That would be cool.

And this general idea is extremely useful.

Killmessage mod
Show killer to everyone? []
Show victim to everyone?[]
Maximum distance to killer or victim allowed to show identity in killmessages []

The only problemis that other people would be alerted and search for you, oh wait, that's not possible here, that's teamwork.

Too bad that's almost impossible.

It could be possible about the radius, but that would probably work even if you are behind a door, which is a problem.

[Bauklotz]

This is completely possible client-sided, since my NewCI does something like this, but I'm not sure if the default function can be overwritten, or if it is actually a function, not just a messageAll thing.

That wouldn't make much sense though, because for all they know, you could have missed.

My Shield and Push Broom Reflector mods use a system to adjust the chat message displayed for "special" kill notices to show the reflect icon. It's made to be easily changeable so it could be used for a "??? -> Blockhead" or "Blockhead -> ???" message replacing the name.
