Idea: Draw groups

You can vote +1/-1 on a draw group which can show something like:
* attack plans
* defense line blueprints
* ...
_

The default / ally-team draw group has no Moderator, but a team can elect one.
_

A group creator=draw-moderator is able to:
* delete a group at once
-> no more deleting of every single line.

* make previous drawing in an area sticky
-> the original drawers can't delete it to troll
_

A player is able to:
* delete his own things in a draw group

* add/delete from his own "troll-player" list.
-> their things are displayed in a way that appears as less important.

* use an option to hide drawing of trolls close to the drawing of others.

* hide (trollish) draw groups

* create up to X (2? 3?) own draw groups in total.
_

Please remember, this is only an idea and not complete.

I would start with something more simple instead.
A widget to plan who place and plays which factory in the beginning.

And then update it to you can plan things in the actual game too.

"Initial queue" or something? I heard it exists.

It needs to be enabled by default with some cute GUI to show how many and which factories does your team plan to have. (probably with elo representation so you can prevent some low elo player to go and try to play some important role, like planes)

Enabling initial queue by default, and making it work nicer with ZK? That sounds like a high-utility project that is likely to be used in every game, and not even requiring vote spam.

But I want ppls to coop more.

A widget which shows the fac somebody has queued would make ppls talk even less :p

I used -1 on you Ivica because you abducted the thread!
If you would have to wait for just 2 other ppls to post inbetween, we would have 3 confusing posts less...

Do whatever you want.

I would prefer people to play silent, but use various in game stuff to make them understand each other regardless of their language. (like placing icons for "air-strike" "emp-strike" on map and so on)

If you make a widget to make people talk more in games, but they don't like it, it's your problem.

Can't care less about your thread. Though I already have my own queue widget.

That was a good post Ivica :)


I though about labels which are translated to a person's language...

But symbols are a good idea too.
Supreme commander has 3 different pings - attack, help and a custom one if I remember right
