Title: Limiting The "victorty/ Kill Channel"........
Post by: boxboy28 on April 25, 2002, 04:43:20 PM

This is not a squeak but rather a suggestion!

I would like to see a way to limit whos kills are reported.
ie just squadies or even just my team mates or even better just my team mates with in range.

I for one get sick of seeing the whole text buffer full of
"VICTOR 1 XXX OF WHO CARES"

I dont need to see  every person in the arena's kill listings for every kill

It just makes it hard if your trying to have a text convo. with someone........... when at base AXX    there are  200 bish vulching 300 nits and racking up 1 million kills.

just a thought HT
possibly giving us the option to only veiw countries/squadies/range guys/ kills

TY

BOX:D

Thatd be a nice idea.

Squelch channel 6 now and you squelch all system messages except when you kill someone and when you get killed.

It would be nice to costumize a "filter" for that squelch though.

I for one would like to see squaddie kills only.. AND, AND AND AND I would like to see what kill # Im at when I make a kill (sometimes im on a kill streak and dont realize it.. had I know that i'dve flown a lot more carefully and landed those kills hehe)

I hope you're correct, but I seem to remember that it squelched ALL kill messges, including your own.

It squelches the Victory # by [your PID] of [your squad] message, but you still see "You shot down [PID]"

First thing I do when I log into the MA nowadays is squelch 6.

...which would be a nice feature to have on version 1.10.

Radio boxes in the setup menu that say:
  _
|_|  Squelch Channel 1
|_|  Squelch Channel 6
|_|  Showjoin as text

I have to turn off zonealarm to fly AH or the voice doesnt work.  (Everything else still does, just not the voice)
