RTV and Scramble

[Keebles]

I had an idea on how to rework RTV and Scramble today. Balubish suggested I mention it here.

These votes hardly ever get enough people that will enter them in chat for them to work. Would it be possible to trigger a server wide vote after 20% of the players call for the vote? So instead of needing 14 people typing in !votescramble this could be done with 5-6 which would then ask the remaining players. I don't know if people don't know how to type in chat or are fine playing with obviously unbalanced teams but I think the community would appreciate a way to make these votes happen more often.

An example for clarity: The map chosen is killing the server which currently has 20 players on it. After 4 people (the suggested 20%) type rtv in chat a server vote is triggered. The remaining (or all) people on the server vote to change maps using the same voting system as a votegag, nextmap, etc. This doesn't mean that the server will switch everytime 5-6 people don't like the map. It will just increase the frequency that the option is given.

Just an idea. Maybe no one else thinks this is a problem. But I have noticed that when a server is full and a lot of people are complaining about the map typing in rtv and seeing "14 more votes required" makes it seem nearly impossible.

Another issue with the RTV command is if no majority is reached. It will do one revote and get it down to like two maps but if one doesn't get a majority the vote fails and you can't RTV again for awhile. Really sucks when you finally get everyone to type RTV and it fails.

Yeah we did Rockety The Voty yesterday and only one map came up. "Stay on this map or Upward" Not sure if that are a script or if we need to nominate more maps before RTV. But maybe 6-8rtv or so should be the max.
And I guess the same for votescramble 6-8 max to votescramble cause often the W1nn1ng team wont agree with the scramble at all. Not so weird either, nobody wants too lose. And as admin we shouldnt force a scramble in the middle of a game.
But I think if its a votescramble its accepted. Might be wrong on that but my point of view.

Yeah this seems like a really good idea. I've always been struck by how hard it was to change a map, especially after today's horror show of a pipeline match.

What are you talking about Pipeline is the shit!

Support. Always hated default rtv and votescrambling systems.

Great idea. That way we have to have a decent amount of people asking for a vote before it pops up and harasses but we also WILL get a few map change votes every once in a while which is most needed.

I tweaked rock the vote, it has a lower percentage (50) to allow rtv, and changed the fail action to change to winner.

Alright awesome Fingerman! I think that will really improve things

Some maps people complain about constantly come up in the vote rotation, is this something that could be altered as well? I'm not talking about maps that are nominated, rather the ones that aren't that are in the default map vote. If that makes any sense.

People have the ability to nominate maps they want to play as well, by using the following commands

IN CHAT
!nominate
/nominate

IN CONSOLE
sm_nominate {map name here}

Yeah I know but if someone forgets to nominate or cant because they nominated last map, then the default list of maps to pick kinda sucks sometimes.

[UNKLE RUNKLE]

Good idea.
