ET Suggestion Redirection when server is full

[Vindstot]

I just had an idea from Discord while talking with @bigbro

 

When J1 is full, it autoredirects you to J2.

If posible, would it be a good idea to not redirect the player automatically, but to give the player the choice to get to another server.

It would give a list instead with our servers. I made this quick sketch (sorry for bad quality 😄 )

So sth like this

 

(I made a typo, it is "want to be redirected")

 

Is it possible to implement such a thing? Would it be good idea to have this?

Could prove to be a good idea, but on the other hand, if someone wants to play on jaymod, they might not want the option of silent, and vice versa, since a lot of people stick to one mod, because they're comfortable with it. 

 

No harm in trying also, I like the thinking.

Then maybe in addition there could be a drop down menu, or second page where you can click if you know what you are doing (so with only 1 click you couldnt get redirected from this place to a non jaymode server) to connect to a eg silent server if you want to by 1 additional click. For me my 2 first choices are Jay3 and S1, so there are ppl who want to play this or that

It's blocked in ETL client because few folks, abused it.  We actually even created a patch to resolve auto redirect from master list, where players got re-directed to attacking server, without their consent. 

 

Sadly, good things get abused. Now I have shared this info to few folks from Jay2, not you vindstot or bigbro (to be very clear).... but they don't want to listen and keep suggesting, redirect, redirect, redirect. 

 

Our servers are still configured with redirect. So in future, if ETL enables it, we can use it.
