ThePro Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Current AFK Script is not the best for a roleplay server. When you stand still in one place for some time, it will kick you. Okay... And if you're stopped by the police and you have to stay in your vehicle? What happens then? Or when you are just having some RP in an office? Why should you be moving around? I think that the AFK Script is useful, but needs to be updated so if the person is doing some action, for example writing into the chat, he won't get kicked while he's not moving. I am sure a lot of people can agree on this... The actual script is good, but not for an RP server. Don't delete the script, just update it so while writing something into the chat, it counts as moving and it won't kick the person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 This can get abused easily, think the one we have now is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nateX Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Agree on the suggestion. I'm constantly asked to move people that are cuffed and down on their knees because, even though they are actively typing and RPing, they are still getting the AFK script message. I agree on adding a script so that the timer resets after typing a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Blackwood Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 this can get abused by someone just pressing t and leaving his computer while being in his house for no one to notice. I agree it gets annoying but unless they can verify that messages are being sent and then mark then as not afk it could get abuse by just staying in the chat box and leaving.

MusketDeezNuts Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 If afk script starts. Use /b to say "afk script" and fix yourself and go back in place. Also its easily abused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marca Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 I think the AFK script should ask you a simple math question (3 attempts if you suck at math like I do) and have a bigger range to reset it. Honestly if someone wants to abuse the current system, they can do so easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor_Morozov Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 I'd suggest adding an afk script which you have to press a button and enter a digit that shows up on your screen to get off afk script. This would make it so you dont have to move around. You could make it like in the old SAMP days, A person doesnt press the afk script button and enter the digits, after 5 minutes he gets kicked off server. Example is posted down below but its in lithuanian: It basically says: You have been afk, Would you like to continue playing? Yes/No 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes/No I think this is the only realistic change I could see being implemented, and even with that possibility I don't think there is any real difference between this and having to walk forward a couple of steps. I'd honestly say a popup box / menu in some cases would actually be more intrusive to ones roleplay than what the current system offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast you dont have to walk which you can easily overcome by making a macro that walks forward and backwards every couple seconds this would make a person 2.5k every hour. In this script you have to press YES, then enter the digits that the script automatically chooses. You could implement this script and make it less sensitive so you would have to walk a certain amount of meters eg: bigger than a house plot, like 50+ meters.

Check 420 Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Current system is alright ,or maybe do a command like /afk ,and than you would not get kicked after 15 min cause the pc knew you're online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bala Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Doesn't even need to be a button, can just include a random value in the message you are in danger of being kicked for AFK. If they don't enter it in time, they get kicked. If they enter it incorrectly three times, they get kicked. Doesn't have to be Pythagora's theorem either. Could just be a random number between 10 and 99 for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
