or make those pits afk kicker-free garages where you pay per minuteJasonJ wrote:Keep in mind it is only 5 mins so that cars don't dangerousy sit in a re-spawn area. Even somone afk, in the pit lane, might get nudged into a PIT garage so then they inadvertanlty become a danger. The 5 minutes removes this problem to.
Yes Sean. It's only the actual garage, or any safe to pit area. Out the back is ok, but if you time out, you still loose 600.
Unfortunately because it's still only a simple solution, (it still took hours to implement and code btw, and I had to actually code this thing three times to make it work because of the complex rules involved), this means that if you park inside the unused garages, or pit#0 and pit#17 (where people cannot spawn from) you still only get 5 minutes. At some point in th future when I add more functionality, then maybe those safe areas (non spawn areas) will be 40 minute places to park. But, this was really just a fix to a badly 'broken' system with the AFK timers.
At least when you look at the server list and see that CLC is half full, at least you can be quite sure that all those players are actually active and playing. In the past a full CLC server might mean half are AFK. so meh, /rant

Re: Full Server - Many AFK ppl
Yes, but I already spent much too much time on AFK stuff (like 2-3 days coding), when we need some things for drivers to do. So afk stuff will be on hold for a bit. But good suggestion, but wait to you see what I got lined up for those AFK driver, you will think parking tickets is a totally boring solution.

And then I get 100 other ppl who I know well, wanting the same thing. Sorry, everyone must wait for releases. Making specific promises when programming is involved is always a downhill battle.
