RTB Development

[General]

If that's the case, then how can it be the slightest bit feasible? It's impossible...

Will RTB have a clan manager? If not i think it should.

I could implement an engine function to do that, it's just a lot of work.

[Evar678]

Well anyway, just curious, do you think RTB could be released at / before the end of this month? Like, any estimated release date?

[Crysist]

When you put your cursor over it, could a small box come up saying what server name is, and how many bricks? Also if the person isn't at a server will the button be grayed out or something like that?

[Ephialtes]

I think a way to see the server details would be nice, but a hover wouldn't really work very well with the interface. I'll think about this one, though - it sounds useful.

If the person isn't in a server the Join/Play button just won't be on the menu.

Never mind then, thanks anyways.

I was imagining something like this (I took out the mouse :/)

Though, of course, you can do whatever you want. :D
I though of it cause it would be real useful to not have to ask the person what server they're on all the time. Also I like the second one much better because, as you said, you wont have to hover, although you could probably make that fade in and out when you put your mouse over or something.

Couldn't you just have the "Join" option pop open the RTB server information window for that server? That way the user could see who else in their friend's server, what add-ons are being used, and then decide if they want to click the join button on that or close it and look at some other friends' servers.

Could we have a thing on IRC, kinda like the chat on Steam that says: "Blockhead is typing"? I find it very annoying when I don't know if someone is going to respond or not.

Also a new server info dialog would be nice. With preview image on the left, and the playerlist/addons in tabs on the right above the Join/Cancel buttons.

I am bad at explaining things.

That sounds like the best way to do it, I'll look into it. I may hold off on adding it until a bit further into the beta in the interests of getting everything going sooner.

Yep, That's a feature.

Yeah I'll be re-doing this at some point, preview images are nice to have.

I think you should bring back music but it has a limit of time, like 30 seconds or 1 minute. This would get rid of the full songs problem.

[Ephialtes]

I've said before there are complications both with the submission process and the in-game downloading/management process which just make it such a huge task. Music works differently from every other type of add-on. I will look at re-adding it at some point with a length limit but not until after the v4 release at the earliest.

it says "No" on all servers
