Add a delay to knocking on windows.

Post by Infant Punter » 24 Jul 2016, 04:43

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): Make this not able to happen.

Image

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): Make it not as annoying, because we can't trust these children with anything.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Put a delay between knocks, like emotes.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Coding? Can't be that hard.

+1 because yes.

Alternate approach: Allow MPs to taze those spam knocking on windows. It'll only end badly for both sides but hey, they deserve it.

-1, because I plan on making a character who bangs on the window because they're a drummer.

Just kidding, +1 all the way. Maybe add 0.1 brute damage for knocking 10 times in under 60 seconds? You could send a message like, "Your hand hurts from knocking that much in a short span of time."

just make it +1 damage after a while and ill be sold. If they keep smacking on the window enough, they'll break their hand.

Oh god, yes. Either put a delay on knocks or implement a permanent ban punishment for spamming knocks. I can't take it anymore.
