Full Version: MultiplayerDialogSettings in Game Modes

Hello again!

I know I am opening a lot of threads, but I have been doing a lot of modding lately. And the more I move on, the more questions, ideas and suggestions I have.

When creating a new multiplayer game mode, I found out that it is impossible to override most options in [MultiplayerDialogSettings]. MCVRedeploys, Crates, MinMoney, Money, MinUnitCount, MaxUnitCount, ShortGame, etc... cannot be overridden. This is probably not a bug, but it would be nice to make presets or even force settings. For example, a "crate war" game mode does not make any sense if you forget to turn crates on....

These options should be considered:
MinMoney, MaxMoney, MinUnitCount, MaxUnitCount

These options should be considered AND have a force mode:
Money, UnitCount, Crates, ShortGame, SuperWeaponsAllowed, BuildOffAlly, MCVRedeploys

Example: Money=2000 should preset Money to 2000. Money.Fixed=2000 should fix the money to 2000 and disable or remove the money slider.

If at least a few people agree, I will open a feature request.

Cheers,
Benjamin
A better way of assessing support would be to just post a feature request, since there's the ICS poll at the bottom of a request where people can declare support or objection to a feature.

It's not as if you have much to lose by posting a feature request - you'll not be cluttering up the forums with stuff that shouldn't be there, and worst case scenario, it'll get closed and everyone can go home. It's not a major setback to our day.

(though check there isn't already a request for this in there, I can't be certain if there is or not)
Opening a feature request turns out to be problem... thanks to the submit button. Smile And although I hunted the button quite a while and finally managed to press it, nothing happens...

I checked my request again and again... nothing wrong with it. What does the hopping submit button wants to tell me?
