The following four points are my ideas with their pros and cons, based on places and games.
1) On the 'Configure' page for Places, a toggle for the number of people allowed on each server, possibly including "unlimited". • PROS: If you are meeting up with a lot of people, but too many to fit in one server, you don't have to worry about being separated from a part of your group. • CONS: "unlimited" may cause lag or an overload on a server, especially for the more popular places out there.
2) In addition to the “# last week” counter on places, a button that brings you to a list of people who visited in the last week, in the format as the Friends List. • PROS: For the curious people out there, you can find out who came to your place in the last week. • CONS: May not be necessary for the un-curious.
3) In addition to the “Leave Game” button, or if the creator updates their place while a game is going on, or if you lost connection, an alert message will give you three options: “Leave Game”, “Continue Game” and “Change Servers”. • PROS: You can effortlessly change to a new server without having to find the game again after it shuts down. • CONS: Unless you lose connection, the pop up can be a distraction or interruption while playing, causing you a flaw in game.
4) In addition to the “Shut down game” button, a “watch game” button. This allows the creator to watch their place in camera mode, without an avatar. Players on the watched servers will be alerted. • PROS: Creators can check on or test their games without having to enter and interrupt players, or worry about being killed while working. • CONS: Players may consider this “stalking”. (It’s not any different than if someone is invisible in game.)
Agree, disagree, change, or opinionate any of these points. I want to see your input! ~Jdraco |

| you can change how many players are in the game by opening explorer, going into the folder called "players" and setting maxplayers. |

| if the message is sent to all players and anchors them until everyone has decided it gets rid of the flaw |

@LordBlackwingDragon Why no support for 4? It's a great idea. Like instead of watching TV you can watch people who are playing on your game. You can make machinima alot easier. I use magic to change your No support to a "Support".
Also I support this. |

@chanman9090
I came up with each individual idea over a half-hours' time and typed them up on Microsoft Word. I copied and pasted from there and onto this thread. Perhaps you are confused by the similarities with other suggested ideas, but I assure you and everybody else that this was my own work; no one else's by any means.
If you have proof of the said convicted thread, please PM me the link and I'll have a look at it. |
