Player restart/map votes.

Post by Flatulent » #596922

For some time now player votes have been completely disabled. This brings some problems:
1. It now requires admin intervention to restart the round if shuttle is otherwise not available. Given that player restarts succeed only during extremely nasty OOC situations such as unplayable TD (hello ice box and kilo), lack of restart options is VERY bad.
2. Map vote now may only happen during shuttle escape sequence, which can cause many people to miss the vote. This is a minor annoyance, but when Kilo is selected by a minority vote, it results in significant pop decreases.

Did we ever have a vote on this removal? Why was this decision never properly communicated and who is behind this?

I took it away because it was not adding any value

A: It's really funny to me that you think we'd vote on vote removal
B: it's a bug
My ancestors are smiling at me, Imperials. Can you say the same?

I appreciate this but: also consider people doing a map vote as soon as a round starts or at some other time. That becomes a lot less convenient than at the end of the round when people can just expect it to happen. People will end up missing it no matter when it is.

Also its a bug.

If it’s a bug, fine, just had to double-check.
