Theres no reason for it at all other than to show that you have donate for flags.....

Please get rid of the different colors for the physical description text, if people care about the color keep it ooc. I ask because when rping a bandit in particular it is annoying when you basically are saying "hey I'm a bandit" just because of the phys desc color and are meta'ed because of it. It's hard to blame the person meta gaming becuase once again I am basically wearing a sign that says hey I'm a bandit. Bit of a jumble, but I hope you get the point.

Good day ;)

Yep. Before in cakescript we had the description of the flag above the persons head, which was a little harder to spot than the giant bold grey text. I'd also support removing the "This person is in this faction" from the scoreboard as well. It would also cut down on the amount of metagaming.

Didn't even think about that, just having one list supplemented by no char desc would almost eliminate meta gaming.

At least, for human characters.

Or just Stalkers/Merc/Bandits

Since it isn't really rocket science to tell that someone is a freedomer/dutier/military/monolith since they have uniforms n' such. Removing coloration from them may be fun too for different reasons.

Would also get rid of mega metagaming if a Military soldier is going undercover or something.

Okay Major Degtyarev

We really shouldn't have "Undercover" military folks.

Just make a Regular stalker...

Gonztah

I support this idea.

I am not sure about this I mean its a very good idea and stuff, its just I wonder how hard it would be for Silver to do this code and so forth without fucking up flags and so forth.

OR you could just ask the admin to change your flag to STALKER or Exp. STALKER.

Yeah. Make your character such that it starts out with the desired gear then have a admin flag you as stalker. Pro-tip: if you make a PBG it seems as though they are more successful as far as with metagame if you don't use the script for your various groups.

Support,
I would get rid of Duty and Freedom description colors aswell, since anybod can just point at that-sunrise-in-distance and see right away what faction hes in.
+ There are times when Freedom / Duty members take off their faction suits to be undercover.

Steven :D

Its not hard at all, lol


Khorn

You don't really need to do that much. Just making the pop up description the same color for everyone would be enough.

Making the User List combined would be a nice addition.

Tom, the wizard of good ideas.
"Mommy, when is Daddy coming home?"
"Here, Alex.. Daddy sent us a package.. The soldier told us that it.. might be a while until Daddy's done with his service. Don't worry, you'll see him soon, Alex.."
"He's always gone! I never get to see him!"

Ket

Yes, please. Making the Physical Description blank would help allot with sneaking.

Admin panel scoreboard should be left alone for obvious reasons.

It was just an example, could be used for anything.

On another note, perhaps that the faction colors should stay the same maybe, and let the stalker/merc/bandit flags be all the same color?

Undercover factioneers tend to piss people off for various reasons.

Mainly because if a Dutier snuck into freedom base and hung out there they wouldn't gain any useful intel (most of the time) it'd be pointless/fruitless and would be merely a taunt. (That being said, im not against it. But I'm not for it either)
