It would rock if
1) you could SET it to not display when you log on/off.
2) log ons would announce themselves over the COMM network, over some super-globally reaching network channel like HELLO or whatever.
| Code: |
[COMM][WORLD]*Yaru Dex has joined the Communication Network.
[COMM][WORLD]*Seth Ventril has left the Communication Network.
[COMM][WORLD]*Trevor Rage unexpectedly disconnected from the Communication Network.
|
That way, log ons and log offs could be more IC.
Same thing for deaths. An Emergency Network Transmission channel that sends an "elderly person medical-bracelet"-like announcement. Further (tech made) upgrade chips can even work similar to the Song of Sorrow.
| Code: |
[COMM][EMT]*Yaru Dex has flatlined.
[COMM][EMT]*Seth Ventril has suffered from a drug overdose. (poison?)
[COMM][EMT]*Trevor Rage has died from blood loss.
|
That way, entries and deaths can have a more IC feel to them, as opposed to magically knowing.

I am all for having chips implented into your skin at birth so people know when you die or wake up.

I'm not sure it can be set up to be put into the COMMs because if that were the case, then they would have set it up using the Arrival window that the Wizard has. This was brought up years ago.

Now if you are talking about something else, then sorry for misunderstanding.

We can put them in a comm message. We can even put them in an arrival window, but to be honest, I rather refuse to. We'd have to use identical messaging for logon/off that the game product matching the wizard mode uses.

Damn you people who use Wizard (aka: everyone but me).
Is it something you would consider if HR's own front end is developed?

Whenever we finally get our own FE together, we'll do a LOT of things to make messages filter better.
