Server side clan support
« on: December 24, 2010, 07:04:48 am »
These ideas are by no means original:
  • Clan membership: Nostalgic about the old days when I used to play MUD (very old skool online game from the early 90s, google it), I remember the server I was playing on had server side support for clan tags. Each clan had one or more admin(s) who could add/remove clan members from their clan. Being in a clan automatically prepended your clan tag to your name and allowed you to use /csay whichwas basically just chatting among clan members only.
  • Scrim mode: A particular mode or g_* setting which makes it impossible for spectators to use /say or /me thereby reducing the amount of distraction for players involved in the actual game play. A very minor mod which was suggested to me by a certain Unnamed Player who loves his anonymita ... i mean er anonymity. (functionality already exists in the latest gpp)

Don't some qvm's already do something like this where public chat (and /m) is disabled and team chat is the only thing that works?

I think it's g_specChat 0 in GPP (Aardvark).

Ok my bad. I checked it in the latest 1.2 (svn 2090) and g_specChat is already there.
