Post Re: Mapvotes again
Is it at all possible to have the map vote list only appear when you're dead and waiting to spawn? I know many times I accidentally vote when what I'm actually doing is changing weapons in whilst trying to playing... Only showing the votemenu whilst dead would certainly help me vote for something I would actually like to play.

This topic came back to life because the mapvote has been tweaked. If you read back then you will understand what the changes are. The jist is that blank options have been put in place for 1,2 and 3, and the actual map options start after that. You should try it and give feedback.

A map vote involves everyone on the server. Everyone is asked for their choice at the same time. Your request would only be possible if everyone died at the same time, or if the plugin revolved purely around your own particular deaths.

Currently the map vote appears at the end of 1st, 2nd or 3rd round (dependant on the map) of a CP/CTF maps or at the end of the 1st round of a PL/AD map. Failing that, it will appear when there are 5 minutes remaining of the overall map time.

try harder, or get your mum to sit next to you when you play and ask her to warn you and point at the map vote menu when it appears on the screen.

Works well. It's already saved me from a couple of weapon switch votes. Nice.

i just want to put this out there and dont expect(/want) any action or reaction from this; i dont like it.

now to vote for what i want i have to move my left hand across the keyboard (away from wasd) and also look down away from the screen (cant 5,6,7 without doing so), so i cant just vote on the fly in action anymore, have to stop play.

yes this is not troll and just how i feel about it, please dont care. for the record i usually dont vote or vote at random anyway unless its 2fort, hydro or a map ive not played.

Just a question more than anything else, does this stop you from using 1-3 to switch weapons whilst the vote is up?
I think I had that problem last night, but I wasn't really paying attention and I can't remember!

Also the vote doesn't seem to disappear once you have voted, I seem to have to press it twice to get rid of it
