Admin Name Toggle

[Hedgemon]

What is HG's opinion on having a admin toggle to see names above players, or specifically guards. Sometimes like on jumprope or slide days, a un-named ct can quickly run over and freekill by hitting a button and its not very easy in GO to see names above players. If there was a easier way to see names it would make our lives easier

Mm not sure this would make it op to be a terorist admin but maybe a defaulted smoke for admins? They spawn with it and it allows admins to see ct names. Thus being able to slay baiters or the retards hedgemon is talking about, who press jumprope button

Good idea, seems like it would be difficult to program though.

my idea not hard. its the same thing as bonbon giving himself scar. !rcon blahblah smoke, make it simpler command, give it to admins. simple

the problem is you CAN see their names if you have a weapon. But with only a knife you can't see any names since there is not a crosshair

exactly which eliminates seeing the names of baiters

I was just confused with your smoke idea, could be used unfairly by the admins

Or just have a message sent to admins in console as to whom pressed the button would be alot easier :/

that was just an example, there's also times when someone's baiting and you can't get their name if you're on T

Hmm, thing is, not sure if there is even a way to change that. I figure it probably has to do with the engine, which if that is the case you wouldn't be able to change it so readily.

give admins a smoke nade that dont do any thing. like the dodge ball

That could work, you would just have to edit the script to act like your in the lr, except no zero gravity... at least thats what i think it would work like

If I could make it so you could see the names above heads, I would.

 

But I can print output every time a button is pressed. Still on vacation though.
