Make Spawn Selection FASTER!

Hank_Montgomery Donator · 623 posts
Man, it takes eternity to choose the spawn location. My suggestion is the following:
1. Let players choose the spawn location without waiting so long for the selection to appear. Make it just 'click arrow' >>> BOOM - the selection appears.
2. Remove the Fade In/Out Black thing in between the selections, make it appear instant. (Well, I guess, it's done on purpose. Does it take time for the 'loads'/location to appear? Could you fix it somehow to appear it faster?

There's no way to increase the loading time for objects
launch your game, and go through spawns (using arrow keys) while the scoreboard is shown (press TAB)
and you'll see shit loading for like 3 seconds
it looks awful
that's why there's a black screen and a delay
the black screen is where it is (such as when you enter/exit interiors) to hide loading
every single game does this when transitioning from one area of the map to another that's got to be loaded first
it's not an MCNR thing
MCNR just seems to be the only server to bother doing something about it

that being said, some cities/jobs have a lot of spawn areas
and a better way to get around them would be good
someone suggested an interactive map like the one in the bottom-left
or maybe if you click the map that's there now, you get a full-screen map and can click areas
idk
that would be relatively easy for me to script i think, too

what if we make something like favorite civilian spawn in settings for each city?

Mike, thanks for the reply!

Yeah, the 'interactive map' thing sounds interesting. Btw, I was thinking about it yesterday before I saw you mentioned it in your reply.

Sounds cool, it would've saved a ton of time too

I have reduced the time that you have to wait between spawn selections from 2.5 seconds to 2 seconds. I have also added a setting to disable this loading stuff completely, so no black screen and no wait time. Will be in the next update.
