Title: dot command to disable other player's salutes
Post by: caldera on June 30, 2015, 08:10:32 AM
Does anyone care if player A salutes player B?  I sure don't and it needlessly takes up text buffer space. 

This picture was pilfered from another thread and shows saluting gone amok, but even when it works as intended, why do I need to see other people saluting other people?

It would be nice to have a dot command to disable all salutes that don't pertain to yourself.  . nosalutes or something like that.

You can try squelching channel 1, I think.


<edit>. Meh... Probably not.  Maybe there's a way to set up those radio panels to drop those.

Make Salutes a Private message. Done.

NEXT!.... NO WISH FOR YOU!  :devil

You can fix your text bar settings to eliminate salutes (channel 1) but that means you won't see salutes directed at yourself.

If you mean I should send all salutes as a PM, that changes nothing as I can still see everyone else's salutes.

If you mean HTC should make it a PM, that is basically what I'm asking for, only that when you type .salute "so and so", only "so and so" and you can see it.

If this screenshot was taken recently, the "Dolby" shown in the screenshot isn't our resident JG5 leader and film maker, it's skyyr using the name as a shade.

Read closely he did not accuse you of being someone else, he accused you of PRETENDING to be some one else.
Hence your telling him not to do something he never did.

Sighhh some people can not read closely and don't know how to parse words precisely.

It's the Skyyr disease. Once his ego is bruised (which is quite easily done with how large and fragile it is) he loses the ability to read and write properly. It's a great source of entertainment for some of us  :D

Yes, I did notice that.  I am also pretty sure there is one person who has responded to this thread that knows for sure who now flys with the name Dolby.

You may or may not know, but you can move the text buffer off the screen completely , I do it every now and then for filming ! Just grab the top of the text buffer and move it down till only the bar around the box shows, once u realize it, presto no text buffer,, hit the expand button to read texts on occasion !   Just a thought!
