Admin Tools
« on: November 30, 2012, 08:54:10 am »
I know it isn't easy in the slightest to add things to admin tools, but I thought I may as well compile a wishlist of what I would love to have available :3

1) Spectate tool - list of all players, click on the name of one, it moves your camera to them in spectate mode. This would be so useful on servers involving large numbers of people, for example battle servers and especially siege servers.
2) Some sort of report tool - a way in which players can talk to admins directly, for example like the system used in PW

These are just some ideas I had, feel free to comment on them or add your own ideas. As I said, I know it wouldn't necessarily be easy to add, but it would make things a lot easier :P

Wouldn't be too hard to add afaik, but these are probably more suited as community-released serverside mods than as built-in tools.

Yeah, I kind of assumed that it would be difficult, or you probably already would have put it in :P
Good to get feedback from devs on suggestions. One of the reasons that the community is so great is the relationship between the devs and the players :D

Another one would be a search bar, to search the players name, would be hard to scroll down in a list of 500 people

Only problem with the second one is people might start to spam it with every little problem. meaning it makes a hard job even harder for us

Is there a way you can make the admin panels a little more efficient?  For example  you could put all of the punishment tools under 1 category(Slays, Kicks, etc..).  Put all of the admin toys in another category.  If you understand what i am trying to say then I think you get the idea.   Perhaps an admin that uses these all the time can say whether this is a good idea or not.    This is just a random thought i had earlier so I thought I would stick here for other people's thoughts.

Edit:  Can you put in an option for an admin to mute a player for all players for X amount of time.  Perhaps you could put this BCoF.

Should you need to talk to me regarding NA1 or or something regarding admining or the admins, PM me here on the forums and not on steam.  *

A searchbar would be fantastic, along with the 'View Spectator' button, that would make the Admin's jobs a hell of a lot easier. Speaking from experience as an Admin of the 33rd siege, it takes a damn long time to find anyone on the kick/ban/slay list, and it's even harder trying to click through all the spectators trying to find the person you want.

Not to bump this much, but listing the names either by team or by order i.e, A-Z, 1-9, might be better. I personally find it a pain to look at the red and green names, and often wind up missing names since they're on the other team.

It would also be great for admins to be able to see player IDs in-game.
