Tl;dr (Please read it all tho <3) > Your thoughts on introducing auto bhop to MG, but with an acceleration limitation so you can't break maps and go super fast, but can still hit bhops for certain maps and less experienced players?
[Hello! If we haven't met yet, I have been playing on the MG server for a little over a week now I believe. I look forward to meeting you if we've yet to. That being said...] So I was speaking with @ASCII about the possibility of introducing auto bhop to the server with a limited speed acceleration and he told me to make a forum post here so more people could discuss this. I know a lot of people are against auto bhop (myself included tbh), but I also know it is likely to bring in more people. Auto bhop turned on and left as is, is broken and too much. People can abuse the speed gain and skip parts of maps that should not be skipped. This is why I believe we should implement a speed limitation. This way, there is still auto bhop for players who are less experienced and need the assistance to beat certain parts/enjoy their experience, but also prevents the more experienced players from abusing it. Some of the less experienced players would feel more comfortable with this feature, without affecting the gameplay too much.
I'm no programmer or server editor or anything like that, so idk if it's actually possible or how difficult it would be to do this. So if I am completely making a false assumption that it is possible, let me know and I apologize. But if it is indeed possible, I feel this could be a great addition to the server without breaking it/introducing cheese. Some maps specifically could use auto bhop simply to be able to use the maps speed boosts/bhops/etc. efficiently, such as velocity_tower, or some other certain minigame options.
I'd love to hear from the community and/or regulars of the server. Even newbies that think they would be more interested in playing on MG if we added auto bhop. Feel free to voice your opinions but please keep it friendly
