Author Topic: event SetTimescale  (Read 4358 times)

it would be cool if someone made an event that changes the timescale. like,
OnActivate>SetTimescale>2.0   or
OnActivate>SetMinigameTimescale>0.5   
now i know that some noobs may use this to mess with the servers, so it may be better if they made it admins only or something, (like maybe in the server preferences) please make this!!!!
                   

I really want it, but it seams extremely abusive.

TimeScale works between the server and client. Changing a clients timescale requires the server meet it for everything to function correctly. You can't make it specific to a minigame. Admin only events are rare because, if they need to be restricted as such, then they probably shouldn't be an event in the first place. And this fits the case.

um, ok. i still think its a good idea.

Setting time scale HAS to be server wide. A client's timescale can be changed, but everything relative to the player is still normal speed. And that just causes weird problems. You can't do this the way you're thinking.

i didnt mean SetPlayerTimescale, i mean the timescale for the entire server, which i know can be abused, which is why i said you could change it for admins, super admins, or the host. or maybe specific players. i know that you couldnt set a timescale for a specific person.




Atleast put links in a flashy manner..

Heres an idea SET PLAYER or BOT timescale :P so it doesent make the whole server slow down or speed up.

Good job completely missing everything that has been said about it being impossible

Then anyone could just set that event, and completely abuse the server. Unless there were restrictions put on it if it was even possible.
