Configuration Error on Idle Kick on Invasion Server

Post by DickerPitter » Fri 21 Jun , 2019 11:46 pm

Hello Admins,

Speaking on behalf of a number of active players, we appreciate the new idle kick on the invasion server.

However, we believe that there is a configuration error insofar as the idle time seams to be 2 min.
This is way too little for i.e. going to the toilet, picking up the phone or opening the front door.

We would therefore like to request that the idle kick is set to 15 min. instead.

With this short time-out you loose everything you've build over an hour because of a full blatter :).

Thank you very much for your kind consideration.

Best Regards
Dicker Pitter

90 seconds it's classic. 15 mins is too long, especially according to why we implemented it, idlers can ruin game on any of our servers. We will discuss an ability to increase a little AFK detection delay.

Although 3 min is better than 1 1/2 min. it still discriminates against women since we need longer to go to the bathroom than 3 min.
I would therefore appeal for a 5 or 10 min timer - please.
Thank you

There are some technical reasons why we prefer to set AFK detection time as low as possible. Now it will be 3 mins, other changes will be possible to discuss a little later, now we will just let new system work.

OK it's a little later now how about 5 mins, enough time for a dump and wash hands afterwards.

And why is there an AFK in spectator mode, that makes no sense at all!

There are three other issues that you could maybe address:

1. On other server you get a time-out notice from the server before you get kicked. On out invasion server there is no such message. Please change this.

2. Once you have been idle-kicked the join button stay gray and even after some time you can't rejoin. This is also the case when you switch to spectator - the join button stays gray.

3. When you are on a sniper mission, looking through the scope and moving the mouse (look at other places) but do not move from your position you still get kicked. However, if you move your view to look for other targets you are clearly not ideling. Is there anything you can do about this?

Thank you for your consideration.
