  • Server Reset Announcements

    I know that when the server reset was first implemented, there was a script that announced the time before reset, albeit it didn't work very well -- Or at all, really.

    I'm wondering if this is possible at all? A simple announcement 10-15 minutes prior to reset to remind players.

    While most players know the time it resets, it's real easy to forget when you're caught up in the middle of something. Kind of sucks when it causes you to backtrack -- Especially if you were in the middle of crawling in a dungeon with your buddies.

    It usually ends in a terrible party-split, figuring a way to get back to them without getting ball-stomped by NPCs, etc.

    10-15 minutes would give them plenty of time to find a safe place to go save and wait it out until the server is reset.

    No easy way to do it, and not going to waste time on it either, it's shelved indefinitely probably.
    The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

      Cirion is the resident loud-mouth announcer. It's alright.

        Yep, this has been discussed before. We'd all like reset announcements, but there's a lot of things we want and can't have because Obsidian decided to gloss over multiplayer.

        And yes, Cirion usually announces it when he's on, and DM's occasionally announce it when they're on. The best thing to do is have a small clock on your desk so you know what time it is without having to minimize.
